Earth Day at Christ the King

By QNS Editorial Posted on May 1, 2014

The Christ the King school celebrated Earth Day 2014 on Tuesday, Apr. 22, by planting vegetable and flower gardens. The celebration involved all members of the CK Campus, including the high school, daycare, prek, and was joined by Middle Village Preparatory Charter Middle School. To kick off the celebration of Earth Day, students from Middle Village Prep visited the daycare and pre-k classes, where they taught a lesson on the growth of plants. The students then all proceeded outdoors to help plant throughout the campus. The gardens will be tended by members of the CK community, and the school hopes to create a cross-curriculum which will engage students, teachers, school administrators, parents and community members in creating a more green and healthy environment for everyone to enjoy.
