What a Semester for our Ag Students!

This semester has been an exciting and productive time for our Agriculture students, who have worked incredibly hard to bring several new projects to life on the school farm. Their dedication and teamwork have resulted in the creation of a brand-new agricultural farm area that includes wicking beds, a well-organised shed, and a chicken run.

The wicking beds are a fantastic addition, designed to conserve water while providing optimal growing conditions for plants. These self-watering beds will help students learn sustainable gardening techniques and improve crop yields.

In addition to the beds, the students took on the challenge of organising the farm shed. Their efforts have transformed it into a tidy, efficient workspace where tools and materials are easy to find and maintain, enhancing the overall functionality of the farm.

Perhaps one of the most exciting projects is the new chicken run. This safe and spacious area will allow students to care for chickens, gaining hands-on experience in animal husbandry and farm management.

The hard work and enthusiasm shown by our Ag students this semester have truly paid off, creating a vibrant and educational farm environment that will benefit the school community for years to come. We look forward to seeing what they accomplish next!
