Bluey's Patch is Fun!

 

Whether it's checking the rain, admiring the plants, filling the wicking bed or embracing Mr Jo Jo the Scarecrow, Bluey's Patch is a fun place to be!

Checking out Bluey's Patch!

Students investigating the delights of Bluey's Patch, from the frog pond and Mr Jo-Jo the Scarecrow, to the Pots of Fun!

 

Lending a Hand!

 

"Are those strawberries peeking up their heads? Look, we pulled up the roots of those pesky weeds! Would you like a hand to water the 'Pots of Fun'? Many hands make light work!"

Food Theme!

The Term 3 Environment Team have been 'on the tools' planting Society Garlic which they mulched with coffee grounds and cracked egg shells, so there is a bit of a food theme happening there now!

 

Term 3, Environment Team!

 

Term 3, Week 1 saw activity return to Bluey's Patch ... checking on the tadpoles, measuring the rain (150 mls), just having a wander around and the installation of the Environment Team!

Certificates of Excellence and Lalor Park Community Garden

As Term 2 drew to a close, the Environment Team celebrated their achievements with a 'Certificate of Excellence' presentation and an excursion the local Community Garden!

Both events were enjoyed and appreciated by the students and give a 10 out of 10 ... well done!

Secret Garden!

 

Winter Colours of Nature!

 

Winter may be upon us but Nature is still "showing-off" its colours ... from the magnificent autumn tree; with its playful leaves, the lemon coloured jonquils tentatively popping up their heads, daisies putting on a green leaf flourish, to sweet pink geraniums decorating the "Let's Cook and Create" pancake making, activity! 

Still with all this beauty the work must go on, so the rubbish trolley needs emptying and the wicking bed is given a drink!
