Help
Needed - School Garden Watering for Summer: We
still need a few families who can visit the school over the summer to
water and harvest the garden. This involves two visits a week and
usually one family takes a week. Watering takes about 30 minutes per
session – morning or evening are best. If your family can help,
please contact Sarah Howarth at 250-727-7006 or
<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);" class="">apollosimba@hotmail.com.
There will a short orientation meeting for the teachers and families
who will be involved.
