Thursday, February 09, 2023
During the summer break Cedar campus upgraded their current Vegetable Garden Area. The update included additional garden beds, benches for students to sit and resurfacing the ground.
Students are provided with the opportunity to work as a team and grow vegetables throughout the year. The garden program is integrated into the curriculum. Students are involved in procedural writing, creating recipes with vegetables grown and eating them!
Currently the maintenance team is working on setting up a vegetable garden for our junior year levels alongside Nicholson Street. This includes 5 garden beds. The holiday break provided the opportunity for our builders to refurbish all student toilets at Cedar Campus. This included tiling, painting, new flooring and toilets.
The school purchased 80 iPads for our Foundation, Year 1 and Year 2 classes. Students will be able to access a variety of educational learning apps to compliment all learning taking place in class. Cedar Campus Staffroom was upgraded with 2 x 75-inch Monitors, new pin boards and furniture to accommodate and enhance viewing for staff during collaborative meetings.
