Paddock to Plate

Baby worms are white

Worms are fun

Creating meals using money and bartering

Planting can be a dirty business 

Today Grade 3/4 and Grade 5/6 walked to the Rokeby Neighbourhood Centre and took part in 'Paddock to Plate', a healthy lifestyle program organised by Mission Australia.

Long worms

The students took part in a variety of activities including; Worm Farming, Making Compost, Healthy BBQ, Planting, and Designing Meals.
The activities were very 'hands on' and the students thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The worms were very popular with their presenter introducing himself as Finn, the Worm Farmer. I'm sure many students will be asking their parents if they too can become worm farmers.
One group made compost and found out that Hot Compost is made out of brown, green and blue layers.
Mrs Crane and Mrs Ferguson are both very proud of how well their students represented our school.

Bartering for eggs so French toast could be on the menu
