Discovery Isle Creates Earth Day Buzz with Ladybug Release

Students at Discovery Isle Preschool in Scripps-Poway have been buzzing with excitement for Earth Day! On April 22, students celebrated Earth Day and taking care of the planet by releasing 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. Discovery Isle Preschool teaches the importance of community and exploring nature at an early age.
