Garden club

The Cudgee School Garden Club was formed at the start of 2014. The club is made up of a passionate group of parents and teachers who see the potential in revitalising our school gardens and creating opportunities for our students by linking curriculum with learning in the natural environment.

Club members have a diverse range of talents on offer ranging from horticulturalists and small farm holders to those who have planted their first veggie garden this year. What joins them is a passion for enriching the learning experiences of the children at CVPS.

Cudgee School Garden Club meets on the first Tuesday of every month at 3:15pm in the veggie garden and working bees are held every 4-6 weeks. All are welcome. We would love to see the school community come together to create a green haven for our students and staff.

How Can I Help?

The garden club is ALWAYS looking for volunteers to help with lunchtime lessons on Tuesdays and at working bees. Contact the school for more details and keep an eye on the weekly School Newsletter for more information.

Manures - any manure fresh or dried is welcome. We can compost and add to the gardens.
