Community Classroom

 
     For the second year in a row, we are embarking on a rich learning journey. Students will walk to Police Point Park and spend three quarters of their school day outdoors for a week. We will be journaling, exploring First Nations culture with Kokum, and learning about the interactions within ecosystems. All of our learning is tied to the core curricula, as well as Health, Art and Physical Education. We view this learning opportunity as a class and community builder which will be the anchor for our entire year of learning. We are fortunate to be supported by our vice principal, school counselor and principal, as well as Police Point Park, FNMI Education, our school district and most important, parent volunteers. We are hoping that the learning experience will plant a seed in each of the students to see their role in nature, as active citizens and stewards of precious resources. Now, let's just hope the weather cooperates!
