We have 2 more before the end of term - students welcome from Y3-6 at 8am-8.15 weather dependent.

🥔🥦Have you seen our new vegetable gardens near Room 32? 🥬🍠

Thank you Nick and Colin for their inspiration and work, and arborist Brett from Branch Manager for supplying mulch.
The gardens will be an awesome extension for the Garden to Table program, enabling growing of large cabbages and cauliflower, potatoes, kumara and pumpkins.

Banana palms are being planted below the gardens and a citrus orchard has already been planted.
