On Wednesday mornings, Lower School gathers in the Meetinghouse sharing silence, reflections and light with each other. Sometimes the silence is broken only by the concluding handshake and at other times, the space is filled with shared musings as students feel moved to speak.
This Wednesday our Meeting for Worship will be held in a different way, we will spend time reflecting about and connecting with the natural world through what we are calling a "Meeting for Stewardship." We will take time to notice the beauty of the world around us; we will help maintain the plants and trees around the riparian buffer and playgrounds, and we will place pollinator houses in various areas to encourage native insects to help our plants and flowers flourish.
The AFS community will be engaged throughout the day as a whole school, sharing the work of stewardship together. Families are welcome to join. You can come at any point and lend a hand. To find out what time your child's class may be out working, please check in with their classroom teacher.
