🦅🥪 Summer Meal information:

🦅🌱🐞Ms. Murphy’s class recently visited the school garden to learn all about POLLINATORS! Did you know that 1 in 3 bites of food you eat depends on pollinators? Her class looked at flower samples, planted seeds that will grow into pollinator friendly plants, inspected the body of a bee, took a tour of the garden, and even learned some garden yoga




🦅🌱The ground is warming up, so you know what that means...it's almost time to plant our seeds and seedlings! Take a look at the after-school schedule for Spalding's school garden, and see if you can join us to learn, explore and prepare our garden for summer break!
Speaking of summer break - you can also read information about our "Summer Garden Club"! We need some students and their families to help maintain and harvest crops this summer alongside our head gardener, Miss Katie. Are you interested in joining her this summer?

🦅🌱The Spalding Garden Crew is excited that it is finally Spring!
In March, many students visited the garden to plant seeds, move compost, water plants, and pull weeds. We also welcomed some amazing families and volunteers who helped prep garden beds and wake them up after their long sleep in winter.
We hope to see you at our next after school event on April 7th!

🦅📚 Spalding celebrated the top readers from the Read Week reading competition by having the first ever school parade! It was so fun to cheer on our friends who read the most minutes from each grade level. The top reader in the school is Evelyn from Mrs. Rosen's 4th grade class. She had the honor to carry the torch leading the procession. Way to go, Eagles!
