New sod has been installed around our junior play structure!

Super thankful to Ottawa Interlock Landscaping & Construction who fit us in to their schedule this weekend and were able to lay new sod and plant a tree for us

Please please please help us to keep your kids off the grass after hours so that our grass can take root and grow !!!

Mr. Kelly has set up a student watering schedule to take care of the sod until the end of the school year.

If you are willing to be part of a team of parents who will take care of the grass over the summer, please contact danakean@gmail.com.  Help us to protect our investment! Sod is not cheap!

Play structure update

Although we had an inspector out to inspect the play structure on Friday, there were a few outstanding items that were required to be fixed before the board will approve the use of the play structure by the kids. Namely:
1. there is a component missing from the structure.
2. the label for the structure is missing which indicates which age range the structure is appropriate for.
3. the gravel path on the right of the structure must use stone dust instead of gravel for accessibility reasons.
We hope to get these three issues sorted by the end of the week and that you can help us by encouraging the kids to be patient with this process. Thanks
