Earth Day School Field Trips
160 elementary school children participated in two special events at The Well Spirituality Center
In celebration of Earth Day, 160 elementary school children came to The Well Spirituality Center in La Grange Park and left a bit wiser, more aware and ready for action. Through hands on, multi-sensory activities the participants learned about the interconnectedness and sacredness of all creation, explored the woods through a guided nature walk, and acquired an understanding of the beings who are suffering. After a fun-filled, action packed day, each student made a personal promise for action and left the field trip empowered as leaders to make a difference for our planet. This year’s field trips were attended by students from St. Luke (River Forest), St.Cyril and Methodius (Lemont), St. Cyprian (River Grove), St. Francis Borgia (Chicago).
