Kitchen Garden News

A part of our program is to give children a range of opportunities to try and prepare foods in various ways, with the aim of making healthy food choices later in life. Plus, having fun and eating delicious food along the way!

The year 6 students were given a list of possible ingredients to design their very own salad and dressing in small groups. They then used their design, like a recipe, to prepare their salad. I was so proud of the way the embraced this learning experience and ate their salads with gusto.

A group of students also made some delicious raspberry jam – some to take home and some for the breakfast club.

The 4/5s tried their hand at rosemary damper making and the 1/2s made flatbread to have with their freshly made basil pesto.

One child even declaring that the flatbread and basil was better than vanilla ice-cream!

A huge thank you to the P/1s on their efforts to deter the pesky cabbage moths. Have a peep in the garden to see what they have done.
