Recipe for a Forest

Last Friday we visited Hubbard Park and did our Nature Adventure Program activities there. It was a gloriously fun day (the first NAP day without rain!) and the children had a wonderful time.

 We rambled through the fields and forest, exploring streams, trees, plants, soil and animals. One group of students even saw a pair of deer!

We discussed the ingredients necessary for a healthy forest and then went looking for samples to show to the group.


We walked all the way to the park and back to the school. We climbed, explored and played running games. At the end of the day the students were quite exhausted...


It was so much fun to spend a morning in the outdoors, getting fresh air and exercise while we learned. We look forward to our next adventure!
