Newsletter Term 4, Week 4

Bushland Fair
Eco Garden was looking its finest for the Bushland Fair with bunting made by the children decorating the gardens. Many visitors were treated to a visit with our resident animals as well as some guest rabbits. A big thanks to the Fisher, Becchio and Lanske families for the loan of your pets.

New Seats
Over the past few weeks some new seating has arrived in the Eco Garden providing new areas for children (and parents) to sit and enjoy the gardens. The students have definitely enjoyed sanding and painting the seats. These were made from a tree collected from Mrs Montgomery’s house last year.

Cooking Equipment
During the holidays we purchased a range of cooking equipment as part of a ‘Live Life Well Grant’ we received earlier this year. Among the new products is saucepans, blenders, electric woks and mixing bowls. We are looking forward to using the new tools to make some amazing foods with all of the garden produce.
