VM garden
Mr Steven Stanecki
John Fawkner College's foundation Year 12 VCE-VM students have established a garden of local plants at the bar of our the national flags. The students sourced planned, prepared and planted the garden over a number of months with seedlings generously donated by Charlotte Napper at Merri-bek Council. Temporary fencing will soon be installed thanks to a small grant from Bank First.
The garden connects JFC to the Bababi Djinanang grasslands at the end of Jukes Rd, and is already being used as a living educational resource to study indigenous plants. The gardens prominent position beneath the flags serves as a symbol of the College's ongoing commitment to Reconciliation.
