Escuela D-4 Arica
Teachers Patricia Eloy and Gladys Hernández did carry out a project from 2019 to 2021 “Orchard at School and at home”. It was organised together with students from the fourth grade of Primary education to the eighth grade receiving support from parents, school assistants, specialists from the University, and CONAF (Institution).
From 2019 to 2020 it was possible to obtain seedlings and then start planting in the school garden and at home. Since March 2020 due to the Pandemic, students have been cultivating at home in the garden or pots, growing plants of corn, tomatoes, bell peppers and ornamental plants. They are sending photos and reports to teachers via the internet and this will continue in 2021.
