A joyful burst of colour and curiosity has earned Homma Elementary a top prize in the international Bulbs4Kids program. Chosen from over 3,000 participating schools from Canada and several European countries, the outdoor classroom and garden program was awarded a Golden Flower Bulb for its outstanding student involvement and creative learning.

Fourteen divisions from kindergarten to Grade 4 took part in the project. Students prepared the soil, studied plant life cycles, and carefully planted bulbs in gardens, planters and around the school’s gazebo. Each visit brought opportunities to learn about pollinators, seasonal changes and environmental stewardship, all while growing deeper connections to the land.
