Chesterbrook Academy® Preschool in Aldie Release 3,000 Ladybugs
On April 22, students celebrated Earth Day and protecting the environment by releasing 3,000 beneficial bugs into their schoolyard
On Earth Day, students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in Aldie bugged out in celebration as they released more than 3,000 ladybugs throughout the schoolyard and back into the environment on plants, flowers and trees.
Leading up to Earth Day, students learned that ladybugs serve as a natural pesticide by feeding on insects that could otherwise harm the health of gardens, trees and shrubs. Chesterbrook Academy teaches the importance of community and exploring nature at an early age.
