Today marked the second day that our horticulture expert Joan Power joined us in school to work with the children in our garden. It has been fantastic to see the students learning through hands-on experience in nature.

So far, the children have explored the edible plants growing in our school garden and learned how to care for them through activities such as transplanting and deadheading. They also discovered how these simple gardening practices help plants grow strong while supporting local biodiversity.

Another exciting milestone this week has been the start of our potato and onion planting. The children carefully planted them and are already looking forward to watching them grow and harvesting them later this year.

We’re excited to see our garden continue to develop while the students build their knowledge of nature, food, and sustainability.
