Since January, the AMEP clients at Palmerston have been enjoying gardening and cooking activities in the Gray Community Hall.

Participants have been enjoying growing and harvesting activities from the Gray Harvest Corner Community Garden. Although the garden is currently closed for renovations, the students continue to attend the Gray Community Hall each Thursday for other activities such as cooking and yoga. These activities break up the week for the students.

Palmerston’s business manager Yvonne Coleman says the students really enjoy practical activities at the Gray Community Hall. Thanks to Palmerston City Council’s generosity, STEPS has free access to the wonderful facility to run these groups.

The Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP) is funded by the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs.
