At Mount Alvernia High School, Newton, some of the teachers wanted a project for environment day and the anniversary of Laudato Si'. 

Sister Jeanette explained them something that she learned in Brisbane from one of our Sisters. It is a stand-up garden used with school desks.

So all the students removed the tops, put a bag of potting soil in each desk and planted cherry tomatos and herbs (basil, parsley, dill and mint..).

What a beautiful result!
