HABITAT HEROES GARDEN PROJECT

In 2019, Year 1 and Year 5 students participated in the Habitat Heroes project to redevelop the rock garden at the front of the school. 

WICKING BEDS

In 2017, the Wyndham City Council covered the cost for two wicking baskets and in 2018, we won a competition from the Vegie Patch Co for a Vegie Patch planter. 

SECRET GARDEN

In 2015, students, parents and teachers worked together to produce a learnscape. Each space was an outdoor learning area to teach students about different learning environments. We had a strawberry hill, vegie garden, herb garden, succulents, natives, indigenous grasses and a sensory garden.

MY GREEN WALL

In 2013, STIHL's My Green Wall project saw the installation of a vertical garden. Werribee Primary School was one of the first schools in this area to have a Green Wall installed. We received a complete kit which includes a steel frame structure carrying up to thirty pots.

Students later created large mosaic lizards which were attached to the wall as a feature to this area. 

NUMERACY GARDEN

In 2013, Werribee Primary School created a numeracy indigenous garden in the area surrounding the Gr 5/6 playground. Colourful poles, a sundial, hopscotch area, a mosaic rainbow snake and indigenous plants were added.
The 30 piece mosiac snake was positioned so it looked like it was moving through a grassland.

MURAL GARDEN

In 2012, as part of a classroom community engagement project, students worked with Julie and Libby (parents) to design and paint a mural. Parents contacted Bunnings to obtain sponsorship for the purchase of paint and plants for the creation of our environmental mural. The recycled plastic seat (collected from our school) added another dimension.
