Hello Green Thumbs,

This week was reconciliation week and we had a wonderful time acknowledging Aboriginal culture. We started our lessons singing the song Inanay, then read Aunty Joy Murray's Wilam a Birrarung Story. We love this book because it is filled with Woiwurrung words, and we guessed each word's meaning as we read. We had a discussion about the current season Waring (wombat season), and the unique characteristics of this time of year.

Grade 1 students created insect habitats by drilling holes into recycled timber offcuts. They demonstrated excellent teamwork skills by working together to use a vintage drill.

Foundation students were introduced to their garden group activities and had an excellent time watering, sweeping, and weeding the garden.

Happy gardening,
