Come Grow with Us
The power of a seed...
This passive solar greenhouse will let kids explore, learn and grow while playing in the dirt. Now, more then ever, kids need that!
Our students will developed practical, valuable life skills and gain new perspectives on food. Creating a living classroom will allow over 400 students from Kindergarten to Grade 8 to apply knowledge in a hands on environment. No other school in our community will have this kind of learning space and opportunity. Lessons learned will permeate across all grades and curricular areas.
This project is unique in that it supports research into leading edge passive solar building technologies that will reduce the carbon footprint through a sustainable, replicable, low impact and cost effective four season green house. This provides strong links to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) teaching and learning.
