Culbokie Primary School
The Year of the Rabbit
Our Garden is a celebration of the Chinese New Year – the Year of the Rabbit. We chose this because it is a year long celebration. We have lots of spring and summer flowers to provide food for insects early on in the year such as Pansies Lavender and Bugle. We also have peas and carrots to provide food for the pupils later in the summer. These were grown at home in Maisie’s greenhouse.
Year of the Rabbit
Beautiful pergola
Chinese character bunting
The basic garden structure is made out of two pallets that were sitting by the bins waiting to go to the dump! A friendly neighbour helped to turn them into a planter.
Our Eco Committee is made up from pupils from P5-7. This was a great opportunity to work together and become friends. We learned that it is really good to listen to people’s ideas as this helps to create something even better
We are particularly proud of the self-watering system. Its working brilliantly. Also our bunting spells out Year of the Rabbit in Chinese. We worked really hard to get that right!
Next year the new Eco committee will take it over our Pocket Garden and care for it.
