The Good Sort giving their class a taste of the farm life

March 1, 2020

Haydn Jones went to Dunedin to meet a teacher bringing the farm inside the school gates.

Science teacher Dr Simon McMillian started Kaikorai Valley College’s farm six years ago.

“We have a lot of land in our school and we weren’t using it,” he says.

With the help of his students he built whatever they could.

Dr McMillian did all this because he knew classrooms aren’t the best place to learn.

“It was really something for me. A self-realisation in teaching.”
