Gardening Club

Alison Hoffmann has agreed to sow the seeds for a new Gardening Club at Nolan and needs your help to make them grow. In other words, Alison has generously offered to help start up and run the new Gardening Club that so many of you asked for in your responses to the School Enrichment Survey. She envisions meeting with children according to age: K-2 and 3-5 on a monthly basis. Activities will be determined by the interests of the participants, but may include learning to grow cool plants from seeds, cultivating vegetables to ripen throughout the school year, helping to beautify Nolan's outdoors, and learning the practical tips and science that make Gardening fun.

So please contact Alison by email (arks@comcast.net) to sign your child up, ask questions, or volunteer to help grow these seeds into a mature club.
