    Well it's not entirely new. It's about 3 months old really but already there are over 100 school garden enthusiasts sharing and interacting on the site at www.australianschoolgardens.ning.com. The site allows you to share photos, vids and files such as units of work, discuss and post events, link with others in your local area and access resources. It's really inspiring. Hope to see you there...

    Our local primary school will be having a working bee in a few weeks.

    G'day Faith

    Welcome to the PRI Forum.

    Brilliant stuff, every school (kindergarten, university, hospital, aged care facility, community-accessed facility of any description) should have one.

    We are in the process of getting a garden up and running at uni. Just about finished the initial brief (bureaucracy :-x ).

    By the way, your link should read: https://australianschoolgardensnetwork.ning.com/

    Whilst undertaking research for the uni garden, I came across this fantastic link a couple of weeks ago:

    https://cultivatingcommunity.org.au/cc/?page_id=29

    Keep up the great work!

    Kindest regards, Mark.
