This week, with the Discovery heroes, the Spark heroes planted and marked the vegetables and wild flowers. With determined hands and hopeful hearts, they put the finishing touches on their green oasis. Here’s to hoping our community garden flourishes even more than our studio greenhouses.
The also heroes eagerly prepared to welcome their loved ones into studio this week as part of the community garden exhibition. The energy was high! The heroes rolled up their sleeves and dove into a flurry of activities to make our studio shine, including cleaning, organizing, and decorating. The walls and shelves now proudly display the heroes’ artworks and plant science experiments that they completed over the last six weeks.
During the “Spark Showcase” at the exhibition, the children proudly demonstrated their Montessori works along with all the art, science and world culture explorations. They also gave their families a tour of the community garden that they built from scratch over the last seven weeks. Everyone toasted, with sparkling water, to the hard work and fun the heroes put into the garden. Now they will practice patience and care as they tend to the gardens in anticipation of fall’s harvest.
The children also reflected this week on the past year, and on the upcoming school year. It’s a time of transition for some of our friends as they prepare to move into Discovery. The guides and children discussed what this process will entail, and celebrating the potential of this new journey.
