While our middle and high school students were showcasing their communication skills last week during The Amazing Shake, our elementary students were off on an exciting adventure to Sheridan! Their day began at Sheridan College, where they explored dinosaur bones, local artifacts, and even had the chance to sift through materials in search of fossilized plant parts! Next, they toured King's Ropes to learn how ropes are made- a hands-on look into craftsmanship and local industry. The day wrapped up with lunch at the park and a fun round of bowling. It was a full and busy day, but our students did an amazing job representing our school and soaking up all kinds of new learning!
