How Does Our Garden Grow?

Mme. Paré has set out some mini raised beds. Her class planted several perennial plants within them. Other classes have climbed on board in our lush new green space including Mme. Trott's Grade 2s and Mme. Dungo's grade 3s who were involved in a healthy inquiry activity. Ms. Kumagawa has also been very busy gardening and has created a garden plan/map. 

Please consider donating a gift plant from a garden centre or your garden as requested in our handout from this week. 


We're Going To Rock Down To The Reused Avenue

Miss Hay's terrific Grade 3 class created a gigantic model of urban and rural communities out of repurposed paper and junk for Social Studies. Wee-hee!



From Junk to Jewels


This awesome Grade 3 student is getting the Primary eco team jazzed about crafting with junk. She has contributed at least four homemade craft projects just for the fun of it. Rock on!

Earth Day

Here are some of our wonderful kids cleaning up the yard on Earth Hour Day. Our Boomerang Lunch initiative is slowly making a difference. Help us go even further by sending all of your child's foods in reusable containers.
