Recently, Year 9 has been learning about harvesting methods and what are the do’s and do not’s while running a farm. Understanding how harvesting has changed over the years and how exactly it works can only truly be done by taking a look at it yourself so that is what we decided to do.
We always try to put the utmost importance on setting the children up for a great education and career. Our trips are always about trying to give the children experience that will help them gain experience and grow as a person. Most recently, we have been looking at all the different kinds of jobs people may have in the community. Most recently, we have looked at warehousing and how this sector is important to our lives. We have had talks by industry professionals and looked at many case studies in class. However, we firmly believe that physical experience is the most effective way of learning.
Every year, we make it a point to focus on a charity that brings the children together and helps them understand the importance of giving back to the community that gave them so much. Every time we do this we make sure we narrow down on a charity we truly believe in and something that we can make the children passionate about.
