Newsletter Term 4 Week 10


Lambs
It is with much sadness that we will say goodbye to Lola and Luigi. They will be going back to their farm sometime over the next two weeks. I know the baaing will be missed by many. 
Cooking
As we finish off the year we have been relishing the opportunity to cook the final products from the garden. Year 1 have been making tabouleh, spinach dip and beetroot dip. Kindy had a potato hunt and dug up their planted potatoes. The smell of cooking potato pizza was the envy of many in 5/6S. It has been a busy year of cooking with lots of yummy food. 
Sign
You may have noticed a new sign has been installed in the garden. This is the Year 6 gift to the school, which they will present at Presentation Day. They are still putting the finishing touches on the letters which will be attached soon. If you are around feel free to have a look at the progress of the garden over the years as displayed in the cabinet. 
THANKYOU!
As we approach the end of another busy Eco Garden year a massive big thankyou from the school and committee to all that have been involved and shared the journey of 2014; parents planting and cooking, animal caretakers, sausage flippers at BBQ fundraisers and labourers at the many working bees. All this help adds up to make the garden what it is today! 

From all of the Eco Committee and members we wish you a safe and happy holiday! Stay tuned for another exciting year of digging, planting, cooking and growing!
