Junior Playground Committee Comes Up With A Plan

Each week, Peabody Patch highlights a child in the community who is making a difference. 

Whether you know are child who excels in school or is collecting cans for a soup kitchen, we want to feature them. Send nominations to Katherine@Patch.com

This week's Whiz Kid is nominated by Judy McNiff

Whiz Kid's Name: The Burke School Junior Playground Committee; Nora Kidd, NicholasFederico, Matthew Davidson, Janelle D’Alleva, and Alexis Annese.
Whiz Kid's Age: Ages 7 to 11 years old
Whiz Kid's School: Burke Elementary School
Whiz Kid's Accomplishment: These students helped develop and plan for the new Burke School Playground.
Whiz Kid's Key to Awesomeness: The student came to each meeting enthusiastic and ready to work. They went through catalogues, blueprints, and discussed finances as we discussed the options. They exhibited a great deal of insight to the job at hand. They listened to each other, discussed, commented and compromised as they determine which playground was the best product for the Burke School. It was a pleasure to work with each of them.
