Poppies are blooming in the school garden .Henry Anderson

Snow in May?!?! No, just the Cottonwood seeds blowing in the wind!

Lots of harvesting from the school garden today: poppy seed pods, cherry picking, garlic! .Henry Anderson

Attended a wonderful event at KPU farm today hosted by Regeneration Canada KPU Agriculture and Root Shoot soils. Amazing people doing great work for sustainable food production.

Wonderful display of sunflowers in the school garden. Students have been looking closely and enjoying watching all the creatures visiting the flowers. .Henry Anderson

How do you get students to run for 40 minutes without complaining? Paper Bag kites!. Students hold the bag until it fills with air and then release. Then they run after it to catch it! Students learn the force of wind and where improperly disposed litter goes.

Students were busy harvesting beans, corn and squash from our Three Sisters garden. What do you do with all the beans? Put them in order from longest to shortest!

After being inspired by the book “Leaf Man”, students made their own leaf creations. #Takemeoutside .Henry Anderson

Students were excited to search for mushrooms in our local park and learn about mushroom safety. #Takemeoutsideday .Henry Anderson

After students planted, watered, harvested, washed and chopped potatoes, they enjoyed their reward: French Fries! Made in the air fryer. Students really enjoyed the fries saying they were “better than McDonalds”!

Inspired by a squirrel drey (nest) students worked together throughout the day to build a survival shelter from forest debris (branches, leaves, sticks, etc) .Henry Anderson

As an annual tradition, students have been busy harvesting and planting poppy seeds in honour of Remembrance Day. Every class is given a package of seeds to plant from our own school garden.

A beautiful gift from a student on this #PinkShirtDay2024 #AntiBullying

Looking forward to it!

Students did a great job dissecting daffodils learning about parts of a flower .Henry Anderson

The school garden will be well taken care of this summer. Students in the on-site day camp will be watering and many families have signed up to water. Thank you, Anderson community!! .Henry Anderson

Students are thoroughly enjoying eating the cherries from our beautiful cherry tree! .⁦Henry Anderson⁩

Students had so much fun sledding today using our homemade sit-upon mats!
