Students of Elsipogtog School started the year off painting a rock with the new Art teacher, Ms. Roberts. The rocks were painted with beautiful colors, designs and positive messages from children grades K to 8. Many of the rocks were taken home, while some were hidden in the community or placed in the community garden. The hope of the project was to brighten someone’s day which was definitely achieved by all the smiling faces of students.

A big thank you goes out to the staff and students of Elsipogtog School for making the Kent County Chapter of the Council of Canadians' first Earth Day Student Art Show such a success. We had 160 entries and, due to the support of the staff, a large number of these came from Elsipogtog School. The council is so encouraged by this that we will, most likely, try to make it an annual event.
