Today the Eco Leaders harvested herbs and veges from The Edible Garden to make gluten free vegan vegetable muffin. We taste tested them (YUM) and popped the rest in the freezer.
We're going to give them to our guests at our GreenGold Reflection Day.
In Edible Garden news, it's broad bean harvest time again. We're going to freeze them and make broad bran dip for our GreenGold Reflection Day.
We put the pods and old plants in the compost. I wonder what we'll grow next ..
In November Sunnyhills will reflect on whether we are still a GreenGold Enviro School. Today our Year 6 children compared where we were in 2018, when we became a Greengold school, and what has changed.
We used the 2018 Prezi presentation and 2018 map that was created for our GreenGold reflection. We put a red x next to the things we haven't sustained and added the new projects in. Check out our evolution by looking at the new map below and clicking on the Prezi link:

As well as continuing most of the practices, places, relationships and programmes from 2018, we've added some major new projects in the last four years.
The five new major changes we identified were:
1 Beehives with Sweet Azzz
2 The Bike Track with Trail Pro
3 Stormwater Sleuths with Tread Lightly
4 The newly renovated Green Room with stairs to the Edible Gardens
5 Bird Corridor Extension with Trees for Survival (over 700 trees)
6 Hot Composting with The Carbon Cycle Company and Waste Minimisation Fund following our Waste Audit.
We can't wait to Share & Shine at our GreenGold Reflection in November.
This week Year Five spent time trampling the kikuyu grass around the native trees we planted. Some have already doubled in size! We hope the spring sun and rain bring on another growth spurt before summer.
