Our Window Bottle Garden

We are excited to finally have our window bottle garden planted. This has been a side project to our Consumerism unit from last term, when we watched a TED Talk about people growing their own vegetables in high-rise apartments. We liked the idea so much we started searching for ideas on how we could make simple planting systems in our classroom.

Take a look at how our finished garden is looking...



We would like to say a special thanks to Yvonne and Emily for the plants and seeds, Wayne for his handy work with a drill, and Sheryl for her gardening tips and support mucking in.

Along with the team in Room 14, this was a real team effort.

  2. Doing the hanging bottle garden was fun because we each had our own bottle that we looked after. I reckon that after people watch the video above they will be inspired and will want to find out about it and maybe trying it at their house.

  3. Creating water bottles with room 14 was very interesting to me because i have never created something that includes the environment,and i enjoyed planting my own bottle plant.
