7.5 Slovakia - Water in our school garden

  • In our school garden here is a lot of interesting places and things to see which are connected with water. Our teachers, pupils and parents, with the help of other sponsors and friends have created a really relaxing and creative place for learning in the nature.

    The school garden has several teaching elements that our pupils can use to learn about plants, animals, herbs, insects and about nature in general - life in water, soil and air.

    We can use our garden for teaching various subjects, such as - maths, biology, chemistry, geography, art, music, and languages.

    Water - the main topic of our project,  is presented by a rain garden, small pond and barrels for rain water. In the rain garden - we use the water from school roofs to water the plants, in the pond we can observe water plants, fish and do experiments with water in chemistry lab, and water from barrels - we use for watering the herbs, flowers, fruits and vegetables in hot and dry days.
