Seeing what our Little Green Thumbs have grown and are harvesting is absolutely amazing. Way to GROW. We are so happy to have you as part of our growing family! 💚💚💚
K-3 students loved their harvest celebration today! @littlegrnthumbs program gives students a hands-on opportunity to grow, care for, and learn about fresh food right in their own classroom garden. 🌱💚 So proud of our little gardeners! @bishopwhiteNL @NLSchoolsCA @AITCNL

K-3 students were challenged today to create parts of a plant with objects around the classroom. They were pretty creative- some even had sunlight and rain! @littlegrnthumbs @AITCNL @bishopwhiteNL
