School Portals
Our Garden is a short film made by pupils of Curracloe National School, County Wexford, in June 2025. Our narrator, James, takes us on a short tour of some of the plants growing in the organic school garden, how we use cow dung to fertilise plants, how Borage and Lamb’s Ear have increased biodiversity in the garden, and how Plantain can relieve nettle stings. The film was made over two days and shows the childrenharvesting potatoes, onions, and salads from the garden as well as preparations for a plant and produce sale at the school.
