Welcome Back for 2014!
Thanks
A great big thankyou to families that baby sat our chooks during the holidays or came and watered the gardens during the hot summer days! The “chooky” girls are back and loving all of the child attention again. The gardens are struggling in our summer heat but will soon be replanted ready for more cooking!
Rosters
Are you interested in minding the school chooks for a weekend? It simply requires collecting the keys and weekend food on Friday afternoon and dropping by to feed, change their water and say hello on Saturday and Sunday of the weekend. You would be rostered on for approximately one weekend per term. If this sounds like a job for you please contact Ms Scanlan and include your contact details including email address, children names and any specific availability requests.
Meeting
Eco Garden Meetings are held each month on the third Tuesday of the month at 7pm in Miss Scanlon’s classroom, during term times. Our next meeting is on the 18th February. New members are always welcome. The first meeting of the year will look at replanting the gardens and plans for the year.
Being involved
The Eco Garden is a large part of the school at Hornsby Heights PS and involves many facets and people. There is gardening, animal minding, cooking, cake stalls and BBQs, building of infrastructure and lesson support. If you feel this is something you may be interested in or would like to find out more please come along to a meeting or email Rhonda French. Many hands make light work.
