RVIS School Garden Project

At Riffa Views International School, the school garden is incorporated into the daily school curriculum via a garden coordinator.  Participation in the garden is voluntary and many teachers are eager to have their classes involved.  All the fruits,vegetables, herbs and flowers in the garden came from a seed that a child in the school planted.  Our orchard is supported by the Ministry of Agriculture, who donate their experitise in grafting, air-layering, and practical advice.  The school's compost pit is fueled by the vegetable and fruit waste created in the school's cafeteria and from children's snacks which come from their homes.  In addition, there is an after-school gardening activity.
