A healthy child can concentrate better and can learn better.

In the medical check mission of MCC it was noted that many children in the Chitwan region suffer from aneamia and undernourishment. These ilnesses can be easily cucred by eating fresh fruits and vegatables daily. In the Sapana School garden we are going to plant fruit trees that will give fruit all year round. Vegetables and herbs will be planted as well. These fresh and ecologic grown crops will be used for the lunches for the children and the workers in the school.

Other goals of the school garden are learning to take care of your environment; learning about biology, plant growth and gardening.

Under supervision of the gardner, the home group teacher and the teacher biology the children themselves will maintain the garden. In this way they together will take care of good nutricion, knowledge of horticulture and possibly they can serve as a good example for other schools in the region.

What do we need?

Trees, plants, gardening equipment, a shed for the equipment, a warehouse for the small plant, water nearby.

Costs: € 3.000,- = $ 4.110 (USdollars)
