Kindergarten

Washington Yu Ying PCS Outdoor Education

The school is taking advantage of new construction and the need to move the current garden to create a garden space with 12 large container beds within a designated School Garden spot.  Partnered with REAL school gardens, the newly designated edible garden will be further incorporated into the school days.  The students regularly use the edible garden throughout the year, integrated within their language arts, math, science and social studies curriculum. An after school Garden Club also contributes to the overall success of the beds.

Rose Hill Montessori Primary Class Garden

In our third year our garden (and it's helpers) have definitely made progress. This year our class of 25 children, ages 3 - 6, planted strawberries, peas, beans, blackberry bushes, radishes, carrots, lettuce and flowers. Today, June 4, they were able to pick a few strawberries and radishes, and the rest of our garden seems to be thriving.
