Garden Club: Volunteers Required
We are sending a plea out to parents/grandparents/special friends, to help out with our Garden Club.
Students have the opportunity to drop in on Fridays at lunchtime play to the Garden Club area, to plant and take care of organic vegetables and fruits in the garden and around the school. The plants are given heaps of tender loving care by the students as they know they will get to use the produce to make delicious, healthy snacks – definitely the part they enjoy the most!
Students participate in many sustainable projects during garden club; including ones that are sold at the Mother’s, Father’s and Special Person’s Day stalls. The Club runs every Friday during lunch playtime, so we need help between 1.30pm and 2.40pm on Fridays.
The club is run by a teacher and parent volunteers. We are always looking for more volunteers. If you’re interested and can be at school during the times above, please either call the school office or send us an email to parkdale.ps@education.vic.gov.au
