Welcome Back for 2019

Welcome back to all our keen Eco Kids! The Edible Gardens have been thriving over the summer break. Today we ate fresh tomatoes & giant carrots that we picked ourselves.

What will we be looking at with Mrs Daniel in The Green Room this term?

Year 1 - The Sunnyhills Care Code - How do we look after our school environment?

Year 2 - 5+A Day - Growing, & eating healthy food

Year 3 - Do The Rot Thing - the nutrient cycle

Year 4 - Kauri Dieback

Year 5 & 6 - Sustainable Energy

Enviro Leaders - Eye On Nature Recycled Sculpture Competition

Greenfingers Gang - tending to our orchard and edible garden every Thursday lunchtime - all welcome.

Home School Partnership:

If families would like to contribute raw fruit and vege scraps to the compost bins in the edible garden that would be awesome.

Are you a keen gardener? Mrs Daniel would love help in the Edible Garden. Please share your expertise. Email christined@sunnyhills.school.nz if you can spare some time.

  1. Yum yum carrots! These look massive! Maybe a nice snack with some dip? Looks like a great programme is organised for our learners this term with Mrs Daniel! Can't wait to see your learnings come to life in action!
