At WaterUps, we believe in making gardening accessible and enjoyable for students of all ages. Our innovative wicking system technology transforms gardening into a fun, educational activity for children and educators alike. By integrating WaterUps systems into your Early Learning Centre or School, you can foster a love for nature and sustainability from an early age.
School gardens are important for teaching children where food comes from. Increasingly with food scarcity in many families, and 13.6% of Australians living below the poverty line, knowing how to grow food is an important life skill to master.
Compared to seventy years ago, more than two-thirds of Australians now live in a capital city with the urban sprawl of our cities taking up once was valuable land used for market gardens and quarter-acre home blocks.
For many children today, fruit and vegetables come from the supermarket – they don’t have any lived experience of growing food nor food production. Plus, they are losing the connection to land which can be a valuable anchor for people as they go through life.
This is why across ELC and school initiatives like Nature Play, Recycling and edible gardens are taking off.
