After many months of hard work from Seymour College’s Year 12 VCAL students, the school has completed the special project.
The garden was designed to acknowledge the school’s connection to the Puckapunyal Military Base area and high number of students from military families.
There are currently 60 students from military families at the school and on average this makes up 10 per cent of its total number of students.
The gardens have been designed to improve connectedness among students and commemorate past and present service personnel from the school community.
An achievement: Will Speechley is one of the garden’s greatest fans.
