Prep Garden Project

In our Science lessons earlier this year, we investigated the Needs of Living Things. We learned that plants need sun, water, soil and air if they are to grow properly. Thanks to a donation of soil by the P&C and a generous donation of plants and seeds by Bunnings Virginia, the Prep cohort have been able to put this knowledge into practice by designing and planting a garden bed. The intention of this project is to teach the Prep children about the different methods of propagating plants. We have sunflowers that we will grow from seeds, daylilies which will grow from bulbs and a variety of interesting succulents. Some have been donated and others have been propagated from various parents’, teachers’ and friends of the school’s gardens. We can’t wait to share our garden with you all as it grows. Thanks again to the P&C and Bunnings for supporting our learning.
