Gardening Australia

We are thrilled to announce that Mount Alvernia College has been featured in the latest episode of Gardening Australia! You can catch the full segment on ABC iView or tune in this evening at 7:30 pm on ABC.

The episode, titled A Gardening Blessing, was serendipitously aired during the week of St. Francis' Feast Day, a fitting tribute to our College's Franciscan values. In this feature, our cherished garden, La Foresta, takes centre stage as we showcase how this unique green space enhances student learning, providing both a peaceful retreat and a practical resource for subjects across the curriculum.

We encourage our community to tune in and celebrate the magic of La Foresta with us! A big thank you to the Gardening Australia team, especially Costa Georgiadis, for bringing this story to life, and to our dedicated students and Curator of Gardens who made it all possible.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see Mount Alvernia on Gardening Australia tonight! You can also watch the segment early on ABC iview by clicking the link below.
