@Harry_Drennan96 I use these all the time, let’s save the planet ✌🏼

Great video on kitchen gardens, it provides questions that can be asked before, during and after the video about the importance of kitchen gardens and schools. This would be ideal for the orientation of the lesson #UONTeach @SAKGF

Teaching children to grow, harvest, prepare and share their own fruit and vegetables is proven to have a positive impact on the food choices students make #UONTeach #nutrition

This nutrition image is worthwhile to have in a classroom as it identifies what healthy fruit and vegetables help and protect certain parts of the body #healthyeating #healthylifestyle #UONTeach

#schoolgardens are essential for improving children's essential life skills. As we are now in the 21st century life skills and environmental factors need to become a large part of teaching in schools #UONTeach #nutrition https://t.co/zlggTMp5aw

School gardens are a great way to teach children about what is needed to grow our food and where it comes from. #ZeroHunger

@Jezza306 I know a school that has very little grass area, so I believe this would be very beneficial in classrooms who are also in this situation. Great find!

@IsabelleMoore_ What a great idea, this would be great for people catching transport

The Organic Schools website is full of information about planning your garden, planting and mulching and protecting it from pests. It provides essential information that teaches students the key points of creating and maintaining a #schoolgarden #UONTech

Great article focusing on Gonski and benefits of school-community engagement. #UONTeach https://t.co/QvM10qqyl9

[Drew Lambert @DrewLambert_uon]

As the Gonski review panel comments: ‘Effective school-community engagement unlocks a world of applied learning and development opportunities for students. #UoNTeach

I totally agree, students who are given the opportunity for hands on learning allow for clearer and deeper understanding #kitchengarden #UONTeach https://t.co/9DKhN81ovc

[Tyce Fitzgerald @TyceFitzgerald]

Basing learning within collaborative and project based learning opportunities provided by projects like the #SchoolGardens provides students with wider reaching links to the content of #LivingSustainably with hands on learning #UoNTeach

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

This video would be perfect for the orientation of a lesson as it shows the importance and benefits of a #kitchengarden in schools. #UONTeach

It's great to see that our local council is getting involved with environmental sustainability and providing opportunities for the community to get involved. #sustainability #LakeMac #UONTeach

@jessicaacarson6 Composting is such an important factor to teach kids and doing it by showing engaging photos such as your dog will make it more interesting. Great work, cute dog also

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

@BainesTayla What a great video to show for the orientation of a lesson

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

This photo shows results from a survey of the impact of kids gardening, its clearly shows that gardening doesn't just improve their knowledge of nutrition but increases their environmental and community attitudes #UONTeach #livingsustainability

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

@TyceFitzgerald What a great activity that students can also do at home. Its important that students understand the importances of gardening and producing new life

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

@laurengear21 @AlexRobbo3096 What a fantastic idea! With the amount of coffee beans that go to waste each day, it would be a great way to show the kids how to recycle

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

Fantastic way to implement a KLA when creating a vegetable garden! #UONTeach

Nutrition is extremely important for all children's health, this image shows the benefits of children helping in the garden #sustainability #UONTeach

[Sarah Buckingham @SarahBucko_]

@AlexRobbo3096 Great idea! With implementation of teaching students about healthy eating and creating a #kitchengarden will maximise students future for a healthy lifestyle. #UONTeach
