Earlier this summer, CLV Group attended a ground breaking ceremony for a local school’s greening project. Through their own efforts, the school raised over $150,000 to turn their parking lot schoolyard into a real, green playground! CLV Group donated $50,000 of that final amount to the project, and Martin, Mike, Cindy and Oz were at the ceremony to present the cheque to some of Glashan’s proudest 8th graders.
The school’s initiative started a little over a year ago when a staff member had a dream to turn the asphalt-covered playground into a green oasis for future generations of middle schoolers. CLV Group wanted to help make that dream a reality. Being the single largest contributor to the Glashan Schoolyard Greening Project, we’re really helping turn hundreds of future Glashan students’ playtime from grey to green! They’ve come a long way since the ground breaking in June – Check out their progress below!

The work got started in August. Greening and groundwork going full steam ahead at Glashan!
Outdoor artwork, created by Glashan students with the help of a local artist, brings the school’s exterior to life!
In October they finished a new outdoor seating area with chess tables – part of the Phase I schoolyard revitalization. What’s next for Phase 2? How about a climbing and naturalized play structure? More outdoor art? They’re not done yet!
