LEAF is all about encouraging healthy habits and habitat.

Students learn:

• About sustainable farming

• About natural processes (such as composting and butterfly migration)

• The importance of native species

• How to relate classroom lessons to the real world (such as using math to calculate how much pipe will be used for a new irrigation line)

• Core life lessons (like patience and the value of hard work)

Working in our school gardens gives our children opportunities to experience a deeper understanding of, and appreciation for, the world around them.
