The first to arrive was Austin, to whom she gave a nod back.

She had changed into her pair of gardening boots prior to heading to the lesson and had her gloves so there was no need for her to change. Daisy then stood on the grass next to the field as per the instructions.
"Welcome, Daisy. Good afternoon to you as well."

Nevertheless, she found the class really interesting and tried her best in every lesson. She was looking forward to learning new things today as well.

"Hi, Professor Sutton," she greeted the professor brightly and proceeded to read the sign. Well, she was already wearing her boots (she didn't want to SHARE gardening boots, no thanks) and she had brought her dragon-hide gloves! So she moved to the grass next to the field and waited for the lesson to begin.
"Welcome to class, Jade."

So what if she wasn't exactly the strongest in the practical execution parts but she was there to learn so maybe practice makes perfect?

Ellie passed by their Professor on the way greeting cheerily "Hi Professor Sutton!" as she read the sign her eyes went down to her black leather shoes. Maybe a change was best if they we're going to be trekking in mud or something... Grabbing a pair of garden boots Ellie quickly changed before she went over to stand next to Jade in wait for the lesson's start. "Hi Jade!" she greeted to the one year younger eagle girl with a smile.
"Ellie, great to see you." She watched as she changed into a pair of boots and headed off towards her classmate.

"Hello, Professor Sutton!," the fifth year chirped happily, waving at the others that were already there. Spotting the large sign easily she nodded only slightly to herself walking over to the grass by the plowed field. Setting her bag down in front of herself she was able to pull out her own gardening boots and dragon-hide gloves. Whenever Herbology was involved she always came prepared. One at a time she removed she removed her shoes to slip on each boot as quickly as possible so she wouldn't topple over. Setting her shoes into her bag she pulled out her gloves.

Now she was ready to get started.
"Hello, Rylee." Kassie couldn't help but grin as she watched Rylee pull out her own gear and get ready for class. It was exactly what she would have done.

Walking into the greenhouse she smiled at the smell of fresh herbs, ah... nothing like the smell of fresh herbs. Things were going great, she was all caught up on her homework in her classes, everything was great. Although she always had her homework done so she could spend time with Oceanus and her friends. Seeing Professor Sutton she smiled brightly at her. "Hello Professor Sutton, hope you're well." she said happily. Looking around she noticed the large sign she walked over towards the grass by the plotted field. Seeing Rylee and Ellie she smiled and waved at them. "Hiya! Rylee and Ellie!" Taking her seat at the front beside Rylee she gotten out her boots and gloves ready to start.
"I am well, thank you. I hope the same for you." Kassie greeted in return. Such a polite young lady.

Just... give her some proper flowers and stuff please... that would be just all right for her.

Sighing as she pulle her hair up into a messy ponytail, the Slytherin moved to give the Professor a way before she picked up the protective boots and gloves that they were apparently going to need today.


.... That was always a scary, unknown prospect....
Kassie gave a little nod towards Holly as she passed by and got ready for the lesson.

Checking that her gloves were still safely tucked in her pocket, the seventh year waited for the lesson to begin.
"Good afternoon, Vita."

Kaiser didn't have garden boots of his own - he didn't possess more than two pairs of shoes, in fact, because he was not made of money - so he grabbed a pair that looked to be roughly his size. He did have dragonhide gloves, but as there was a selection of gloves devoted to gardening laid out for them here, he took a pair of those instead.

Glancing around briefly at his classmates, Kaiser went off to find himself a space that he could change into the boots, and once he had done that, he waited quietly for the lesson to begin.
"Good afternoon, Kaiser." She was glad she had put the boots out for the students even though several had their own. It was for the few that didn't that she wanted to make them available.

It's safe to say that Lucas was quite confused as he walked towards the spot where the Herbology lesson was taking place. Herbology was one of those strange subjects: they could either learn about something cool and nice or they could learn about something that might take his life. You didn't know what you were going to get and he..... didn't know how to feel about that.

Not to mention that Sutton was teaching this now. He tried not to remember the events from last term but they kept floating back, especially when he saw her face. So, joining the crowd, the third year offered her a small and polite smile before saying, "Uh, hello, Professor." Hello. Hey. Everything was fine.

Awkward? You bet.

To distract him from this, he, instead, pulled out his dragon-hide gloves from his bag. Having changed his boots on the way here, he didn't need to change them again but he did pull on his gloves, giving his fingers a bit of a wiggle as he did so.

And what was with all the boxes?
She smiled at Lucas as he approached. "Good afternoon, Lucas. Welcome to class."

Plants were everywhere and she'd like to be able to tell the difference to a mundane versus a poisonous one, so there was that. Professor Sutton always seemed super nice too and Maeve was grateful to see her teaching a practical subject rather than the arbitrary subject of Divination as she had last year.

Greenhouse four. Wearing her own boots, but she did swipe a pair of gloves from the pile. "Hi Professor Sutton!" she beamed at her new head of house. "What lovely Fall weather, yes?"
"Hello to you as well, Maeve. Yes, it is quite lovely. I couldn't have hoped for better weather today."

But with each lesson, she was becoming more and more accustomed to weird wizarding plants.

Joining the rest of the students gathered from Professor Sutton, Avalon scanned the sign. "Hello, Professor Sutton," she said with a smile. She patted her robe pocket to make sure that she had remembered to bring her dragon-hide gloves and glanced down at her black lace-up boots. Thank goodness she had remembered to bring her own boots from home when she was packing for the term. Communal gardening boots were not Avalon's idea of fashion.
"Hello, Avalon, welcome to class." Kassie saw that Avalon had passed by the boots and gloves in favor of her own gear.



Kassie glanced down at her watch and noted it was time for class to start. "Welcome to our lesson, everyone. I know that a lot of you have your own boots and dragonhide gloves. However, please do feel free to use the boots and gloves provided. Especially the gloves. I find that for what we will be doing today, the dragonhide gloves are a bit too, well, protective. The cloth gardening gloves will give your hands more freedom. Still up to you which you would rather use."

She moved a few steps forward to be closer to the students. "I don't wish to run out of daylight, so let’s begin. I’m sure you are wondering what we will be doing today, and maybe how much hands-on work will be involved.” She gave them a smile as she gestured towards the tools. “But, before we get to work, I have a few questions for you. First off, what can you tell me about evergreen trees?” She wanted to hear it all from them. Types, where they grew best, how big they got, what they could be used for…




OOC: Class has started. Feel free to jump in at any time. Just post as if your character as been in class the entire time or IC consequences may happen. For the first question name one thing about evergreen trees. It can be anything about them. The lesson will move on in about 24 hours.
