This week we (the whole school) offer a special thank you to all of the Room 11
students who worked very hard to clear most of the quack grass rhizomes from
our garden beds. We removed >40kg of rhizomes.
Quack grass is named that because we can quack with it between our thumbs.
It is a non-native species from Europe, first reported in Canada in 1861.
