Creekside Cares has been partnering with Mr. Mitchell Wilson and Ms. Erika Luke in the school's outdoor classroom. Each week on Tuesdays, a group of dedicated Creekside Cares volunteers mentor students who participate in the school's Garden and Engineering Club. These students learn about the school's working vegetable garden, beehives, chicken coop and more. The lovely outdoor classroom features walking trails, a presentation area and opportunities to learn about forestry, the world around us and teamwork. Our volunteers have been dedicated to helping Mr. Wilson and Ms. Luke complete tasks on their plan.
The working chicken coop is a favorite with students and teachers. The coop was contained within a very small space and the chickens were not free to roam. Ms. Luke who leads this part of the outdoor classroom had hoped the fence would be installed during an annual event hosted by a local corporation. The plans were not able to be completed and upon hearing this our volunteers jumped into action. Thanks to our volunteers and a wonderful local vendor, Allied Fence Co, the W.G. Pearson Chickens have a new 20x20 fence. Allied Fence generously donated a beautiful, professionally installed fence. They were incredible to work with and have gifted the school and students with a lasting structure. The new chicken habitat will make for happier chickens and safer students. Everyone will have more space to walk around and learn. Thank you to Tony and Kelly Crain and Allied Fence! Our hearts are overflowing!
We have plans for a ribbon cutting ceremony soon. Watch this space for details.
