Garden Gets the Go !

Big Thanks to the Asset Management Directorate who have taken a look at the proposals on this website and responded positively to our plans.

We thank them for their support and appreciate the use of valuable space for our community garden and outdoor classroom. We appreciate that this is no small gesture. All here at the newly sanctioned Halinda Green site are determined to utilise this project to make a productive garden that extends the scope of our programs and enhances the use of this asset in multiple ways.

Thanks from all of us here at Halinda Green.

A place to grow.


We have an area next to our school that is flat and safe.
"I can't wait to have a vegie patch !" Says Kate. "A garden will work here well."
" I reckon !" Says Dylan, "And we could work here too."
"All our friends could share." Said Kristine.
"Yeah!" Said Vaenga.
Savanah smiled in the sunshine.
"Can Savanah have a garden too ?" Said Danura.
They pushed their friends on the grass.
"Are we going to have a garden?" Said Danura.

A walk in our imaginary garden


Today we took our wheelie friends for a walk in our imaginary garden. There is not one there really now. But soon we could have one there. With high garden beds for our friends in wheelchairs. So for now we just pretend.
