Helping to BEAUTIFY Wellington

Today, the first graders got the chance to help take ownership in Wellington's beautiful landscape. After listening to a presentation from Mr. Adam, the students helped lay mulch down and even got to get a little dirty!

THANK YOU Mr. Adam (Turf Masters) and Chris Hould (Wellington's PTA President and Lyla's dad) for letting the students participate in this today!
