The winner being Scott Creek Primary School
With part of their prize money a group (almost half the school) visited Nirvana to experience more food growing ,composting, had morning tea in the willow house and also learnt that Scott Creek starts at Nirvana.

It would be so lovely to have them write things on the blog, wouldn't it. Looks like they are taking their food garden pretty seriously there.
I did not like going to school ,it all seemed such a waste of time learning about the Queen, Captain Cook, doing projects on the bush men of Africa.
I would have loved to go to Scott Creek Primary and have fun in that garden! What a great place to be. Thanks Deb.
