Woodstock School Working Bee

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

We are planning to have a working bee on the afternoon of Saturday 9 May. We have a variety of projects that we would like to undertake on this day to help with our elective and Enviro-school projects. If you are able to provide either a skill in a particular area, supply some materials that we need or are willing to come along and help out wherever, we would extremely grateful!

 We are planning to;

• Tidy and weed gardens around the school.
• Dig out a garden
• Re-paint seating around the school and boards around the CE Unit
• Repaint games on concrete and prime seats around the trees
• Clear and tidy area along boundary fences
• Move our chicken coop
• Clean out worm bins and compost bins
• Tidy up area around our veggie garden and our school orchard
• Extend the veggie garden fencing

We need;

• “Painters” to help with painting new games on our asphalt and repainting our seats around the school.
• “Builders” to repair our picnic tables and extend our veggie garden fencing.
• “Gardeners” to help with weeding and tidying up our gardens and grounds.
• “Labourers” to help out where necessary.

We would like;

• Sources or contacts for either free or cheap bright paint suitable for concrete and outdoor use and wood, wire for our fencing project
• To borrow wheelbarrows, gardening tools and paint brushes on the day.

Please fill in the slip below and return to school by Tuesday 5 May if you are able to help out.

We appreciate your time and support.
