Earth Day Activities from our high school chapter of Sunrise Blue Hills Hub
Firstly, I hope you and your family are healthy and safe during these uncertain and scary times.
I am a co-facilitator of the Sunrise Blue Hills Hub here in Sharon. Sunrise is a national youth led organization that works to prevent the climate crisis and create millions of green new jobs in the process! We usually meet monthly at the UU Church of Sharon, but have been communicating over zoom calls the past few weeks.
Me and a few other people from the hub have worked in the past week or so to come up with a list of 50 ideas for activities that parents can do with their younger children (preschool and elementary school age) at home during quarantine to celebrate earth day! We are hoping this will help out parents who are having trouble entertaining their kids while also providing opportunities for children to learn and grow during this time! I have attached the document I would love to send out to parents before Wednesday this week (earth day!!).
I am trying to get this out to a large amount of people, and I was wondering if with your network with children in Sharon you would have any recommendations for where I should start or how I can reach people? I would appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks so much!!
Best,
Grace MT

Community Education response to COVID-19
Hello Community Education families and friends,
It is my sincere wish that you and all you know and love are well and safe. I wanted to take a moment to update you on what is happening for Community Ed in response to Covid-19.
The first question I want to address is your money. At this point we have credited all monies that have been paid for services that were in progress and have now been suspended: after care, before care, and enrichment. For classes that have not run yet, adult education and third session of enrichment we have refunded all money. For programs that we are still planning on running, Star Camp, CREATE, and next years before and after Care, we have deposited that money and are using it to plan and secure supplies just as we always do. Many of you have kindly asked about our staff. We are committed to paying our staff, and will continue to do so as long as possible. In some cases, our enrichment classes and adult ed classes, can be taught online. Either your instructor or Sara, our program manager, will be in touch with you should you be enrolled in one of those classes that could potentially continue.
We look forward to gathering together soon, until then, take care of yourself, be safe, and stay healthy.
Meg, Barbara, Erin, Sara, Bridget
