Last week the Upper Primary A and B students were planting seeds and eating fruit kebabs as part of their ‘Living off the land’ Science unit.

The students will investigate how and why food and fibre are produced in managed environments, using sustainable methods. They will also explore how people in design and technologies occupations address competing considerations, including sustainability, in the design of solutions for current and future use. The unit culminates in students following the design and production process by designing, preparing and producing a healthy dish, considering safety, nutrition and sustainability.
