Year 5 Winter Garden

Wednesday, July 26, 2023

Although winter in Melbourne is in full swing, students from Year 5 have been busy planting their winter crops in the garden. Seedlings of different winter varieties were planted across all raised garden beds. This included spinach, lettuce and strawberries.


During these winter months students of Year 5 get to experience the true meaning of being a gardener. Mulching, weeding and watering have been some of the weekly chores out in the garden.


Finally, making connections between seasonal seedlings and farming activities will help students understand the cycles of seasons in the garden and in their own lives.
