Queen Mary School and garden

Queen Mary school is the other heritage school in our neighbourhood, designed by the same architect as our local Ridgeway school <http://davehuggarddrawing.blogspot.ca/2012/09/ridgeway-school.html>  It has a beautiful community garden around it.  The soil is so rich that the sunflowers in some people's plots are a threat to low-flying aircraft.  The school is closed for 2 years for its seismic upgrade, which freed up the schoolkids' garden plots for a demonstration grain garden, with 3 varieties of wheat and barley, oats, corn, flax and quinoa all growing profusely.
