In what ways has this kit improved student awareness of nutrition and healthy eating? We’ve talked about the food pyramid and where different food sits. They were all excited to see where fruit and veges sat. We are hoping next year to complete a garden to table unit.

How successful was this kit in promoting student ability to identify vegetables? We are still waiting for our vegetables to grow, however they were able to identify most vegetables from the game and we also made vege soup. They just got muddled between lettuce and cabbage (but I know adults who get them muddled lol)

“This kit was thoroughly enjoyed by my yr1-3 class. We are eagerly waiting to harvest our crops! It’s been amazing learning for the students. They have learnt such valuable skills. Planting, caring for, feeding etc… all skills they can use in their future years. We’ve set up 2 raised garden beds full of goodness! We are a small rural community which will benefit from our vegetable growth. Thank you for making this happen!”
