Field Trip Monday!

We're squeezing in one more field trip! Yes, since this program ties in so nicely with our current science unit, we Grade 3 teachers agreed that it would be really nice if the children could have one last opportunity to enjoy some hands-on learning. So, though it's a bit last minute (apologies!), we're going for it. 

Permission slips were sent home on Wednesday, May 31, and here are all the details: 
  • When? Monday, June 5
  • What time? Our bus will leave at 8:30, so please be at school by 8:15. The actual program runs from 9:00-11:00 AM. Busses will arrive back to school by 11:45 AM. 
  • How much? AED 60 
  • Why? To learn more about rainforest relationships (more below)
  • What else? Non-fasting students may bring a snack and water and will use a designated discreet area to eat/drink. Please return your permission slip on Sunday!
Rainforest Relationships

Life in the rainforest is competitive and survival is tough. Rainforest plants and animals have developed complex relationships with other species in order to survive in this diverse environment. The Rainforest Relationships program gives students the opportunity to explore these complex relationships and learn about how working together is the key to survival, while also getting to know the indigenous plants and animals. 
Thanks so much for your support! We're looking forward to a thrilling morning!
