The Garden Project: Cafe
At bellcate School we believe that all students are valuable and possess the ability to contribute something meaningful to the world. We believe that in order to harvest these gifts it is essential to identify and address basic human and unique individual needs (physiological, safety and security, belonging, love, acceptance, esteem, approval and recognition). Our mission and core values support the bellcate School philosophy.
Our Garden Project teaches farm traditions of growing and preparing food as part of the academic day, it enlivens every subject, from reading and writing to science and art. We are really excited about this new project. The garden was started in the Spring of 2012.
bellcate exists to support youth with special learning needs towards the achievement of personal growth and success. We understand growth to be a challenging process for anyone. We recognize that this process requires time and support and we are committed to supporting adolescents and young adults in affecting positive change. With a team of highly trained, committed and qualified teachers, bellcate has supported numbers of youth in exploring, understanding and taking positive action.
Our goal is to improve the health and nutrition of young people through a gradening and culinary curriculum that teaches teens to grow , cook and enjoy healthy food.
