The Big Burn
On November 14, the Killarney Community Centre Senior's Association got together to embellish the panels of the larger 8' x 4' ft planter boxes. Two dozen seniors used river stones to make their marks!
Out-of-School Care Kids Woodburning
The kids enrolled in our licensed Out-Of-School care program also got involved in the process of embellishing the planter box panels. the younger ones used the salt-dough method, while the others used the wood burning tool. Here are a few works in progress.
Preschoolers Making Their Mark!
The preschoolers learned about bugs and creatures that might live in gardens. Together, we made salt-dough critters, placed them on the wood, toasted the wood with a blow-torch, then lifted them to reveal their shadows. The results were beautiful shadows of creatures and river rocks. Pat Beaton introducing the activity.
