The Soil Arrived

Yesterday we had a truck arrive with some soil for the gardens and to fill up the planter boxes. Foreman Matthew helped the driver back the load in and made sure it was delivered to the correct place. Thanks Matthew!

Wheelbarrow Licences

Today Wednesday 28th August our students had to complete an obstacle course while pushing their wheelbarrow to obtain their wheelbarrow licence. All students had a great time with lots of spills and fun.
