The Year 2 students are proud to announce the mini harvest of our very first lettuce and broccoli for the season from their garden. Each Friday morning students work in small groups to create and care for their garden by growing seeds, watering and weeding, planting seeds and creating compost.
The garden project focuses on the principle of pleasurable food education with the School being a member of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Foundation. This type of inquiry based learning provides a hands-on understanding of subjects like literacy, numeracy and science, as well as practical skills related to team work and cognitive thinking.
