Hallett Cove Preschool Garden Redevelopment

Our "Roots and Fruits" project is an integral component of Hallett Cove Preschool's commitment to enhancing quality education and sustainability practices at our preschool. Our preschool's sustainability focus stems from a desire to revitalise and repurpose the space formerly occupied by our chicken and duck yards. Through this project, we aspire to breathe new life into this area by transforming it into a vibrant native garden. This garden will feature a diverse array of elements, including pollinating plants, native flora indigenous to the Hallett Cove area, a bush tucker garden showcasing local edible plants, fruit trees, and an expansion of our existing vegetable garden. At its core, the project aims to create an immersive learning environment that fosters curiosity and exploration among children, nurturing a generation of eco-conscious individuals who appreciate and respect the natural world. By engaging in hands-on gardening activities and sustainability education, our pre-schoolers will develop a deeper connection to nature and cultivate lifelong values of environmental stewardship.
Last year this Art Show raised enough money to help with the installation of a new fence and the purchase of fruit trees.
