Here are a list of activities from our Curriculum Development Manager that can help keep your children engaged at home. And they have learning benefits too! We hope you find them helpful.
Educational Resources during COVID-19
We are pleased to be able to share some of our Garden to Table gardening, cooking and education resources to support families during this lockdown period. You can view recent posts and categories on the right of the screen. All across NZ funding bodies are closing to new applications, corporates are putting a hold on their donations, and generous, individual donors have become our lifeline. Garden to Table doesn't receive any government funding, although our work, building resilience and life-skills in children, has never been more important. We are making our resources freely available, but would be grateful for any donation you are able to provide to help us continue our work with over 16,000 primary school children each week. The Donate button is at the top of the screen. Stay well and kia kaha.
Ideas for keeping children engaged

Beetroot, Carrot and Sesame Seed Salad
Tuesday, March 24, 2020 | Linda Taylor
One of our favourite salad recipes. Children love toasting the sesame seeds, but keep an eye on them as they can burn quickly!
Autumn Harvest Curry
Tuesday, March 24, 2020 | Linda Taylor
Another great recipe for using up odd bits of potato, pumpkin or carrot. Make as mild or spicy as you like! Click on the link below for the recipe.
Greens and Cheese Fritters
Tuesday, March 24, 2020 | Linda Taylor
Cheese makes everything better! Here's a Garden to Table staple recipe that can help you use up all that silverbeet and spinach you may have in your garden or fridge. With thanks to Laura Cornelius, Garden to Table Kitchen Specialist at Te Huruhi Primary School, for this recipe. Click on the link below.
Beetroot and Chocolate Mini Cakes
Tuesday, March 24, 2020 | Linda Taylor
A fun way to include some more veges in your baking! Make sure you're all wearing old clothes when you make this, though, as beetroot stains are unforgiving!
