What can you expect in this session?
You will receive information about the importance of school gardening and how to organise it in practical terms (in the classroom, in the schoolyard by removing a few paving tiles, and on a larger scale….). You will also hear where to find support for setting up a school garden and for organising and teaching the lessons. In addition, you will receive more information about the growing activity ‘From tomato to seed to plant’ from the Month of the School Garden. Naturally, there will be room for your questions.
