Welcome Forward to School!




From the youth at New Settlement's Bronx Helpers:

Welcome to Brook Park
When you first walk in you see flower beds
But not the kind where you lay your head

When you wish that you was in bed
And you know that you was never fed

When you go to Brook Park
You don't come to play
You come to work all day.

And my name is Trene
Here is what I have to say
Everything is green
That is all I see

All the bees in the trees
The dirt on our shirts
And the rocks in our socks

That's what happens in Brook Park!
