QE will receive a very large soil delivery on Friday, February
24th. We need volunteers with gloves, shovels, wheelbarrows, strong backs
and smiles to help fill the boxes, top off the existing boxes, top off the
fruit orchard beds, and fill the new extended kinder garden with soil. The work
party begins at 1pm and will continue until the dirt is gone. Students are
encouraged to join in the fun after dismissal.
