Looking after our plants at St Therese Primary
Our school made signs saying “don’t step on the plants” som people don’t step on the plants because we noticed a lot of kids were walking on the gardens.
It made a great improvement, because instead of telling them not to step on the plants we put up signs to show them. We got the signs mounted by a local company who make real estate signs to sell houses. We did this because we thought it would make the signs last a lot longer.
It protected the plants well and people started realising that it is a garden and not a walking path. We have noticed that less people are walking on our gardens now.
