Growing Green: terrariums, hydroponics and floral design. Students cultivate both plants and patience through weekly hands-on projects: building self-sustaining terrariums, experimenting with hydroponic systems, and creating seasonal floral arrangements while learning plant biology and sustainable growing practices. Each child takes home living creations that keep growing, fostering responsibility and a real connection to the natural world.
