Permablitz 179 (Doncaster)

St Gregory the Great primary school is looking forward to starting a veggie garden. Students, parents and staff have all been working together for about a year to plan a smooth transition into the curriculum. Last year, students voiced that they would like to have a veggie garden at school and the Grade 3 students voted on the most sustainable garden bed – the majority of students opted for wicking beds, with many also showing an interest in worm tunnels.

The permaculture seed has been planted and now it’s time to grow! Once the garden is in it will be forming a major part of practical garden learning for all Grade 3 and 4 students as well as the Grade 3 students involved in the new Garden Arts elective.

During this blitz you will be making things happen! You will be resurrecting a currently unused area of the school, transforming it into an educational edible paradise.
