Year 3 & 4 Dojo Redemption Excursion: Lavender Farm

29 November 2023

This week, students from our Year 3/4 cohort who have demonstrated excellent behaviour throughout the semester were rewarded with an excursion to Warratina Lavender Farm.

Year 3 & 4 Dojo Redemption Excursion: Lavender Farm

Our students were able to observe how lavender is picked, a very strenuous task completed by hand, then dried and sent to the markets. They learnt that lavender is also made into a wide variety of products like honey, candles, sprays and ice cream, jam and lollies.

Thankfully the weather was kind to us and we were able to spend time wandering through the various lavender bushes. The excursion finished on a high with students trying samples of lavender ice cream and lollies to enjoy on their way back to school.
