Arbor Week
Sponsored by The Town of Richmond Hill, Urban Forestry Section
Every year we get to plant 1 tree for every Junior class at Charles Howitt
Public School.
In the last 5 years we have planted over 25 trees thanks to the support of
the Town of Richmond Hill.
It has really made a difference to the back south-west corner of the school
yard.
Some of the trees are mature enough now to even provide our students with shade.
