Dear ISY Community,

Celebrating Earth Week through Athletics, Arts, and Activities

As we celebrate Earth Week at school, it’s the perfect time to reflect on how we can integrate environmental awareness and sustainability into our athletics, arts, and activities. Here are a few ways we can all contribute:

• Sustainability in Sports: Consider using eco-friendly equipment and gear. Encourage teams to carpool or use group transport for games and events to reduce carbon footprints. Utilizing digital programs for scheduling and communication can also save paper.
• Eco-Friendly Arts: Artists can make a strong impact by choosing sustainable materials. Experiment with recycled items for your art projects and explore themes that highlight environmental issues, inspiring others to think critically about our planet.
• Activities with a Purpose: Plan activities that include environmental clean-ups or tree planting. Host workshops focused on sustainability practices, or organize a community event to raise awareness about environmental issues.

Earth Week is a reminder of the small changes each of us can make in our daily activities to contribute to a healthier planet. By incorporating these practices into our sports, arts, and activities, we can positively influence our community and environment. Let’s use this week as a catalyst to continue making eco-conscious decisions throughout the year.

New Artificial Turf: A Game-Changer for Our Program

We’re thrilled to announce the completion of our new artificial turf, replacing the old one, which has already been put to good use this week. This upgrade marks a significant step forward for our sports facilities, providing a durable and high-quality surface for our athletes to train and compete on. The new turf not only enhances performance and safety but also continues to reduce the maintenance and water usage associated with natural grass fields. We’re excited to see our teams thrive on this state-of-the-art surface and believe it will offer a fantastic experience for players and spectators alike.
