Ethics for Children – Service Day in Marine Park (with pictures)

Ethics for Children – Service Day in Marine Park (with pictures)

Our Ethics for Children program’s monthly service project day happened on a lovely day in Marine Park this month. The kids and adults met the friendly and super helpful rangers who work at the park, learned a lot about the wildlife in the area, and went to work, cleaning the paths in beaches in the area.  A lot of smiles, gorgeous views, and community time later, and they had collected 3 large industrial bags of plastic and a crate of large bottles, and helped protect some of the delicate wildlife in the area.
Check out the pictures below, and come join us next time!
