Kids attending Nambour’s Brookes Street Kindergarten will enjoy a great new backyard area including vegetable gardens, herbs and citrus trees thanks to grants from the Gambling Community Benefit Fund ($15,000) and Sunshine Coast Regional Council ($5000). Spokesperson Emma Harry said the improvements would benefit the children and the kindergarten enormously. “This is a fantastic opportunity for the children to develop their senses of smell and touch. They will learn about nurturing and looking after the plants and they will even have a new friend in the form of a scarecrow lovingly hand-made by ‘budding’ gardeners,” she said. Kindergarten families and staff will celebrate the new backyard area and maintenance shed with an open day on Sunday June 21.
