Naa marni!

This term, eight Year 5 students formed a new action group. The purpose of the group is to is to celebrate the culture of indigenous people and look at how we can take action on reconciliation. We brainstormed some different ways that we could take action, and decided on planning a bush tucker garden.

The garden will include kangaroo grass, bush tomato, bower spinach and rosemary. In addition to the garden, we are hoping to add finger lime, lemon myrtle and peppermint gum to the orchard. The garden is going to be outside the Year 3 and 5 classrooms, near the mural that will be installed next year. Once the garden is established, the plan is to use the newly grown bush tucker to cook with in the kitchen.

Thank you to Mrs Gardner, Ms O’Driscoll and Keith Sharplin for supporting us with this project.
