October 2009: Budding Botanists: More Planting at Earl Beatty

Through the Joan Grys Award* and a successful city of Toronto greening application**, Earl Beatty was the happy recipient of 1000 (that’s right! One thousand!) free bulbs to plant in the schoolyard. Once again, Earl Beatty students found themselves getting their hands dirty in the name of environmental stewardship. Good work everyone!

* The Joan Grys Award was received by Earl Beatty for work that was done by the school and several Parent Council Greening Team Eco Committee members. This work involved the planning and building of a butterfly garden from previous years located in the south-west area of the schoolyard and the newly designed outdoor classroom.

** The application was submitted by Parent Council Greening Team Eco Committee members to the City of Toronto Clean and Beautiful Fund.
