Kuyangani – Kaurna for ‘the place where fish congregate’ – Holy Family Fish Farm 2017

This year the staff and students have been engaging in learning to develop aquariums for a range of fish and underwater creatures. What started off as small tanks for goldfish has evolved to bigger aquaponics areas using waste from yabbies to grow plants and herbs. This week children assisted in the creating a new tank for a class turtle. Overall it has been great to see the learning that has evolved from introducing barramundi, silver perch and murray cod. Feel free to come have a look!
