Ultimate List of Donations

Alveare Learning Community’s Ultimate List of Donations

We always look forward to hearing about all your wonderful adventures, walks, day trips and explorations! Should you happen upon any interesting artefacts on your travels, then we would love to add them to our Learning Community collection of natural objects. We are also interested in adding to our small plant collection in Alveare, so if you have any plants that can be grown from cuttings, you may wish to propagate some over the holidays (a great science project!). These artefacts inspire thoughts, questions and connections that support our inquiry into our world.
