Our Secret Garden

Our school has a narrow strip of land that some of the classrooms backed onto and we were all at a loss in how to use it.To hire a landscaper was beyond  our financial needs, so with the help of Bunnings, a willing Green Team made up of students from Prep to Year 6, we got things moving. 

Bunnings donated the pallets and some plants, which, with the efforts of Brad, our very handy man, the first step towards our hanging gardens was made.

Our Upcycling Club next took over and made planters using 2L and 3L milk jugs. They painted and beautified, planted and watered. 

We called it our Secret Garden because we tried our hardest to keep it a secret from our Principal and managed to have a "twine" cutting ceremony where the students proudly showed the fruits of their labours.

Of course there will always be more work to do, but it's our labour of love and we hope it will keep on bringing joy, peace and contentment to all of our students and staff.
