Our ‘Blooming’ Outdoor Classroom
It’s a delight to come to this time of year as we have waited patiently for all those little seeds and shoots to spring to life since spring, winter or even back as far as autumn! Our school garden though small and simple, acts s a backdrop to much of our outdoor learning- particularly in term 3. Whether its art or nature, music or playtime, bug hunts or birdlife, or even a picnic its lovely to enjoy the colour, smell and even taste of this outdoor space. We had a good crop of rhubarb this year, our strawberries are coming along nicely as are our potatoes, carrots, parsnips, onions and more. The flowers that were planted by parents, staff and pupils at the front of our school are really looking wonderful. They add a nice warm welcome and splash of colour as we arrive to school each morning. As Well-Being plays a very central part of life here for us all at Maryborough NS, we value all that these small green spaces offer to us. The joy and wonder of nature! -Ms Gow-
