Our Year 1 Canterbury Kitchen Garden Adventure
Our Year 1 Canterbury Kitchen Garden Adventure
Yesterday our Year 1 students visited our sunny Canterbury Kitchen Garden, where they looked at the freshly sprouted red poppy seedlings, checked in on their growing carrots, learned about our garden's nourishing worm tea, and started the planting process with sacks full of seed potatoes.
Mr Penny is hoping we can get around 3,000 spuds at harvest time!
Throughout this week, students in the Junior School will take turns collectively being part of this process, and creating abundant produce to share with our community.

This morning's Sudsy Challenge Sausage Sizzle for our Prep-Year 2 students was a flamin' good event.
We had four queues of hungry students waiting at what our students described as the 'length of 1,000 sausages' per line.
But they were happy to wait, as each sausage sandwich purchased supports the wonderful Orange Sky Australia charity!

Konnichiwa!
Last Friday, our Years 11 and 12 Japanese Language classes enjoyed a fantastic time on our Senior Japanese Excursion.
We visited the Consulate-General of Japan in Brisbane City and learned about future pathways, exchange programs and scholarship opportunities.
It was inspiring to discover the endless possibilities of mastering the Japanese language.
We also had the opportunity to explore a Japanese supermarket, immersing ourselves in a world of authentic products and cultural treasures.
From snacks and drinks to unique ingredients and artefacts, the vibrant Genki Mart gave us a taste of daily life in Japan.
To satisfy our appetites, we enjoyed a traditional Japanese lunch together and savoured the authentic flavours of Japan.
And, of course, we couldn’t miss the chance to experience Japanese pop-culture Karaoke!
We sang our hearts out, unleashing our inner J-pop stars and creating unforgettable memories.
Arigatou Gozaimasu for joining us on this incredible journey!
Let’s continue to embrace the beauty of the Japanese language and culture together...
