Good News -We received the $500 Wannon Water Ripple Effect Grant for a watering system for Waterwise veggie beds.
Thanks to the work of Jensen and Brendan at the end of Term 2 - measuring the garden area and measuring the beds, recording the information on a plan and photographing their work. We will receive $500 to buy the watering system and have it installed. Our students and parents will all be involved in planning it and working with the installer next year.
Thanks Jensen and Brendan - great work!

What is Spring to you?
