LMS Students Enjoy Easter Break at Sprout Creek Farm

Fifth and sixth grade girls worked at the Sacred Heart Network Farm
As part of the Sacred Heart Network Leadership Program, 18 Lower & Middle Schools girls spent Easter Break at Sprout Creek Farm in Upstate New York. The students in fifth and sixth grades applied to participate in the week-long program, immersing themselves in all aspects of helping run the farm.
 
The girls took on various tasks, including milking cows and goats, learning how to make cheese, beekeeping, collecting eggs from chickens, ducks and geese, and maintaining the animal pens. The group also partook in activities focused on leadership and group participation.
 
The trip culminated with a visit to Network school, Convent of the Sacred Heart in Greenwich, Conn., before heading back to Atherton.
