In their first Vegetable Garden class, Elementary School Grades 1 and 2 students were introduced to the program and the activities they will take part in throughout the school year.

Through discussion and collaboration with their teachers and our School’s agronomist, they set the rules that will help them work in harmony, care for the garden, and respect the environment. This process was linked to the transdisciplinary theme “How we organize ourselves,” and its central idea “Rules contribute to harmonious coexistence,” as the children recognized the importance of rules agreed on together for a group to work well.

With enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility, they took their first steps on a learning journey that will allow them to observe, nurture, collaborate, and develop a meaningful relationship with nature.
