Attend the School gardens in Salesian schools are an increasingly standardized project. It brings children closer to Earth, establishing a bond with a concern for the environment and the need to live in harmony as a species and the realization that we must all take care of ourselves in the “Cycle of Life”.
In addition, of Salesianos Ciutadella, they added that “The Garden provides students with a series of rewarding and unique strategies. It provides an ideal context for learning to think, educate emotionally and master social skills, all framed in a practical, experiential and manipulative way.”
Many children have never seen the process of growing tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries, squash, beans, beets… that fruits can grow from a flower, and that there are plants that cannot grow. A flower, but from the roots … And this moment is magical, and both teachers and students enjoy it and separate a lot ».
In addition to the objectives of planting, growing, caring and collecting, the Ciutadella school garden project:
- Environmental awareness work.
- Shows values such as responsibility and commitment.
- Promotes teamwork.
- Stimulates the senses as well as creativity and imagination.
- Develop motor skills.
