Madame Perron and her Grade 1 class were delighted to help plant four Acer Rubiums (Red Maples) around the St Francis school yard today.  Planned to provide shade in the kindergarten play area and over the picnic tables,  the trees are a welcome addition to the school yard aswell.  The Grade 1 class will have the opportunity to care for and watch them grow for the next five years while they attend St Francis.

With the help of Hal and daughter Kris Falk, this year we planted 12 trees along the overpass, 8 in Thomson Park, and four more at one of North Bay's Public Schools.  Thank you to TD Friends of the Environement, NECO and the Rotary Club of North Bay for helping sponsor this years tree plantings.

     Worth noting, this year we managed to get the trees planted before it snowed again the day later May 31!
