The fascinating world of the Orca K-8 school garden!

These lucky students popped out of their door and into a Jurassic Park like garden that needed their help. They were able to harvest many pounds of broccoli (of which they prodceeded to devour all of during snack time). They also harvested some purple kale (not as popular as a snack).

Broccoli anyone? Yes!

 They also helped water a garden that was quenched for thirst!

Mr. C brought his class on a walking field trip to the Hillman City P-patch to bring Orca’s garden plot there OUT OF HIBERNATION! This plot will grow much needed food for the food bank and fits in with Orca’s mission of positive community involvement.

Mr. C was also really excited about the students getting some quiet, reflective time in nature after two weeks of WASL testing. These students were able to find a place in the garden to write about observations and reflections of their surroundings.
