Goldstream Alternative Site Visit:
We went to Goldstream for the "Eagle Extravaganza". The Goldstream park is a great educational site to bring classes aged K-12. They offer various grade specific programs throughout the year at the Nature House. Each program is season specific, for example now until January is the "Eagle Extravaganza". All visits are by donation! They have a lot great information on the website. Check it out. http://www.goldstreampark.com/
We chose this site after we did environmental educationwith Chris. Its soo important to get students outside of the classroom, and in tune with nature. Learning in a natural setting is key to gain appreciation for our environment. We also really enjoyed ourselves, it was a nice destressor in the midst of a hectic school week. (although it was -2 outside!!!)
We think everyone should check out Goldstream Park, it is definitely worth the drive!
Merry Christmas!!

I LOVE Goldstream Park! I used to have birthday parties there when I was younger...and I still camp there!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree that taking classes there is a great way to get them outside, as well as give them some education! The park is beautiful, and in the spring it is always nice to have picnics or BBQs!
PS- Your picture collage is fantastic!
