Getting back to work

And the moment we had all been waiting for... the school year of 2010-2011 has now started!
This year is the first year that we are going to have the Garden Committee run as an official school club at Prince of Wales. This is naturally very exciting because great work has been done by our wonderful summer members for the past couple of months and now the garden has a strong foundation for further development and expansion. At this stage, there are many projects and ideas that are ready be undertaken for the improvement of the function and layout of the garden and it is up to all you fellow PW students to join us and get involved.

Our first meeting of the school year will be happening on Tuesday, September 21 at lunch in room C110 and everyone who is interested in helping us out at the community garden is strongly encouraged to attend.

If you are a summer member, make sure to show up so we can present the project we've finished together as a team to the new committee members and our sponsor teachers. If you just heard about the Garden Committee and want to know more, please also don't hesitate to come to the meeting. We would be more than happy to have you there and hear your ideas and comments. Everyone is welcome!

Many thanks to summer members: Allie Peloquin, Claire He, Danielle Mayo, Emma Gosselin, Heather Ross, Jordan Chiu, Michelle Chan, Sheida Naderi, Mike Zhai, Paloma Brioschi, Swetha Yatham, Kavya Yatham and Sasha Mills. And I am looking forward to a great year at the garden and meeting all the new Garden Committee members... See you all on the 21st!
