Ms. Curcio and Mrs. Kander continued the partnership project with the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. Here students from grades 5 and 6 are involved with the study of green plants. Last month, the students walked to the gardens for their lesson and this week the lesson took place in the large meeting room in the parish center. Our next project involving the whole school will be our school garden, the front garden and the class garden boxes.
