Sustainability & Garden Club

Gardening Fun!

Hi everyone! Yum! The rain meant we had a very short Gardening Club today but lucky David got to pick and taste a delicious tomato! We also harvested some bok choy. Next week we can harvest some beetroot, chives, silverbeet and beautiful Calendula flowers.

Things we need!

Do you have any spare paper bags we could use to bring home our vegetables? We could also use small plant pots. Please leave at the office, labelled “Miss Belinda”. Thank you!

Classroom Recycling 

Sustainability leaders are seeing less “mistakes” in the classroom recycling bins. It is great to see our leaders teaching our younger students about recycling and what can go into the bins.

Nude Food Day every Thursday

Well done to all students who participated in Nude Food Day this week. 

And the winner for Week 1 is … 3/4TR with 17 rubbish free lunches! The Sustainability Leaders decided to give an Encouragement Award to Prep CM for thirteen, and 1/2 MB and 1/2 RT with eight rubbish free lunches. Come on Year 5/6s! 

Some yummy ideas - a sandwich/wrap/roll, pasta with vegetables, soup, frittata or sushi, a fruit or vegetable snack, such as whole fruit, cut up veggie sticks, fruit or savoury kebab or a small salad. 

There are some great ideas here:

Thanks everyone for your great efforts in helping us live in a way that is kinder to our environment!

Have a great week everyone!
