More than 80 students from Prep to Year 8 will grow a new bush tucker habitat at Peregian Beach College after the school won a coveted grant.
The school was one of only three in Queensland awarded the $1000 Life Education and Yates Growing Good Gardens Grant – their successful application chosen from almost 1000 entries across Australia.
The grants program encourages young people to get out into the garden to grow healthy food and other plants and learn healthy habits.
