St. James Kindergarten Students Teach Environmental Stewardship During Earth Month 🌱

April is Earth Month, and students at St. James School are putting their faith into action by learning how to care for the environment. As part of the school’s focus on stewardship (April’s virtue of the month), Mme Hagen’s Full-Day Kindergarten French Immersion class led an engaging lesson on waste sorting, teaching their peers how to properly use the green bin, blue box, and recycling bin.

The activity highlights the school’s commitment to responsible environmental practices and aligns with April’s virtue of stewardship. Through hands-on learning, the young students demonstrated how small actions—like sorting waste correctly—can make a big difference in protecting God’s creation.

“Our Kindergarten students did a wonderful job leading by example and reminding us of the importance of caring for our common home,” said Jody O’Daiskey, Principal of St. James School. “By fostering these habits early on, we are helping to build a generation that values sustainability and environmental responsibility.”

Throughout Earth Month, St. James School will continue to promote stewardship through a variety of eco-friendly initiatives. The school community is encouraged to take inspiration from the Kindergarten students and make environmentally conscious choices every day.
