At Halwell Mutual we pride ourselves on being deeply rooted in our community. We are proud to have recently partnered with Advocate to help raise money for the Rockway Public School Greening Project.
The Rockway Public School Greening Project was designed as an outdoor learning centre which encourages children to engage in more imaginative play, exploration, outdoor learning and provide a variety of activities to support large and small muscle development. The outdoor learning space is complete with natural discovery centres, water play, sensory elements, and dramatic play areas.
Together with the help of various grants, fundraisers, and donations, Rockwood Public School was able to raise $100,000 for the centre, which opened on June 2, 2016! We are proud to have been able to make a positive impact on the lives of the students of Rockway PS and hope that we can provide initiatives like this throughout our community.
