Greenwood House Mural

5/19/2021

Ms. Porter tasked the 2020-2021 Arts Execs with coming up with a community mural project to which everyone at Greenwood could contribute.

Teddy Vescio ‘21 came up with the idea to have a minecraft-inspired, Post-it Note concept that would combine the eight House colours and our love for Outdoor Education.

It took approximately 4 hours to scale and draw out the grid for the mural. Teddy, India Morgan ‘21, Annika Christen ‘21 and Gabe Browning Rodriguez ‘21 all helped with the grid process.

Over the course of two weeks, students and staff picked up their House-coloured Post-it Notes from the Guidance Office. During breaks they would take these coloured notes and place them in the appropriate spots to help reveal the picture.

The mural showcases the Greenwood tree on a rock that overlooks a lake with the sun setting over a city skyline.

What a beautiful tribute to Greenwood!

We acknowledge with gratitude the Ancestral lands upon which our main campus is situated. These lands are the Ancestral territories of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Anishinabek and the Wendake. The shared responsibility of this land is honoured in the Dish with One Spoon Treaty and as settlers, we strive to care for the land, the waters, and all creatures in the spirit of peace. We are responsible for respecting and supporting the enduring presence of all First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. When away from this campus we vow to be respectful to the land by protecting and honouring it. We will create relationships with the people and the land we may visit by understanding the territories we enter and the nations who inhabit them.
