@KylieOC95211808 Some great ideas! Students can bring their knowledge from the classroom into their own home! They can teach their families these ideas then record back to the class on how they improved carbon footprint at home!

Have you thought about having bush tucker in your school garden? Students can have a hands on experience learning about Aboriginal culture, foods, native plants and history. https://t.co/eAfqysNYmX

Kempsey Shire Councill has opened up a community garden for all to use. “The garden is a place where the community can gather and celebrate, and in the process learn more about gardening, healthy eating and healthy lifestyles”.https://t.co/TUNHBBJhoY

An engaging garden space in a culturally diverse school can be used in many ways. A main idea these gardens can be used for is as a healing space for students. #Wellbeing #UoNTeach

How great! A database for teachers to access books on #culturaldiversity. Students can gain knowledge through visual learning on these important topics. #UoNTeach

Pernille Malberg Dyg & Karen Wistoft (2018) indicates that the school garden program promotes students’ wellbeing through their positive emotions about being outside in the outdoor environment. #UoNTeach

Absolutely love these display ideas! I feel as though we can often undervalue the meaning that a simple display can have to a child’s sense of belonging. #allcrayonsbelong #UoNTeach

@Josharvey_11 I agree! Having hands-on experiences is a great way of learning. Students can learn about the importance of fresh foods, agriculture and supporting the local community. Student could have an excursion to a local farm.

School gardens have positive impacts on communication, teamwork, social interactions, relationship building, sense of belonging, self-esteem, cultural awareness, social wellbeing and compassion. Children are more likely to interact positively with people different from themselves

‘Whoever you are, wherever you are, we are the same all over the world’ This book by Mem Fox is a great resource for young children to understand equality, diversity and wellbeing experiences. #UoNTeach

Kempsey West Public School encourages their students to get involved with cooking with fresh produce from their veggie garden. This helps promote healthy eating habits and experiment with foods they are may be unfamiliar with. #UoNTeach

Get your students involved in the #SafeHandsChallenge! While it can be hard getting the littlies into good hygiene practices, it’s widely believed that habits learned young are more likely to become ingrained and stay into adulthood. #UoNTeach

My 10 year old grandson Master Arman Jena takes the #SafeHandsChallenge

[Tiarna Burns @BurnsTiarna]

Good hand hygiene is important in general but more important now due to the #CoronavirusOutbreak.
This is a fun and engaging way to teach your kids to wash their hands and be aware of the dangers in spreading germs. #UoNTeach

[Global Goals @GlobalGoalsUN]

We all need a mental health break sometimes, especially during these days of #coronavirus anxiety.

@UNICEF_vietnam found a way to have fun and be informative about this serious topic. If you haven't already done so, learn the dance, wash your hands and take care of yourself!
