Sustainability News

Sustainability in Action

Spring is in the air, and evident by our early spring crop. Our Kitchen Garden has an abundance of fresh herbs that Year 5 used to create a delicious ‘cream cheese and garden goodies dip.’ It was a great conclusion to our term-long gardening projects. Hopefully, parents of 5 Blue have seen their children come home with a new passion for gardening! I am looking forward to welcoming our new Kitchen Garden helpers; 5 Orange.

Kitchen Garden Helpers of the Month:

Congratulations to Marial W and Amelia T for being our SAKG Helpers of the Month. Amelia T has been an excellent gardener, always taking initiative, and Marial is superb when cooking and cleaning during our kitchen sessions.

OzHarvest - Year 6

Year 6 has also concluded their unit on food waste and cooking. French Toast and Turkish Carrot Dip were some of our favourite recipes!

TYRES NEEDED!

If you have access to spare tyres, we would love to add 4 to our Year 1 Bee Garden. Please let me know if you are able to help us with this.
