Students,
parents, community members and staff work together to maintain a viable
Kitchen Garden. We transform the produce into delicious, healthy snacks for the Toora
Primary School Community. Excess produce is sold off to fund new planting.
Arie Bos, community horticulturist, regularly works with students to
establish new plants including fruit trees and herbs, as well as oversee
the vegetable garden.
Parent, Tracey Turner, is a talented gardener and donated strawberry
plants that thrive in the school environment and are extremely popular.
When students wrote to
Tracy
concerned about ‘pests’ (not human) beating them to the fruit
Tracy
came to the rescue with netting and helpful advice.
We have a newly established

Tucker
Garden
