Hands on Learning 

What an amazing day

Absolutely brilliant day at Hands on Learning in Week 4. So proud of the students who are stepping up and taking ownership on projects. 

 

Golden shovel recipients Kayla and Ashley (Larry the lizard also a big part of the day). Total transformation of orchard space, take a look at the photos.

 

In week 3 our Hands on Learning members replaced an old kitchen with another user friendly kitchen. They all did a fantastic job.

 

 Golden Shovel recipient in week 3 was Matthew Bridger. Matthew is a team player, always completes both group and individual tasks and is not afraid to get involved.

 

Donations!

Hands on Learning have converted an old chook pen into a green house and we are looking for donated items including pots, small plants, plants stands, and small pieces of galvanised pipe (e.g. old taps, elbows etc.).  

 

Any items would be greatly appreciated.

 

For drop off options, please contact Damian on (03) 5723 0500 or via damian.loiterton@education.vic.gov.au 

 

Thanking you in advance,

 

Damian Loiterton

Bottle & Can Recycling Fundraiser

Did you know that 53% of plastic bottles end up in landfill?

 

12% of plastic bottles end up in our environment where they contribute to the 130,000 tonnes of plastic leaked into Australia's marine environment each year. 

 

Wangaratta High School have started recycling plastic bottles and drinking cans, with proceeds from the initiative being put back into our school and supporting worthy school projects.
