Sustainability News

Hi everyone! 

We are exploring some exciting new developments with Sustainability, with the upcoming creation of an Indigenous Bush Tucker Garden and an expansion of our vegetable gardens. We are also looking into obtaining solar power, which would make a huge improvement towards our sustainability footprint as well as eventually saving Trinity money. Stay tuned for more details to come! 

Gardening Fun

Our calendula flowers have bloomed and we enjoyed harvesting them and munching on the yummy petals. We left some flowers in the garden because they give great food for the bees. We also harvested lettuce and several students brought some home so hopefully you will get some tasty salads with dinner tonight. The hunt continued today for what could be munching on our silverbeet. The culprit - slugs! We found them a new happy home under the trees, away from our veggies!

We would love to see any photos of our produce taken home being included in your dinner!  If you take a photo, please send to bnechwatal@tcs.catholic.edu.au.

Things we need!

Wooden spoons - to make decorative plant labels for our vegetable gardens.

We still need more paper bags to take our veggies home in. Please leave at the office, labelled 'Miss Belinda'. Thank you!

3/4 BOC win Nude Food this week, with a MASSIVE 20 rubbish free lunches! Well done!

Some yummy ideas - a sandwich/wrap/roll, pasta with vegetables, soup, frittata or sushi, a fruit or vegetable snack, such as whole fruit, cut up veggie sticks, fruit or savoury kebab or a small salad. 

There is a great booklet of ideas here
