A Wild Adventure
with the Grade ¾ Class
Mrs. Bergen’s class ventured off to the Cheam Wetlands this morning for a field trip. Their adventures began with the main road to the Wetlands being blocked due to construction, but the workers felt sorry for all of the disappointed children and allowed us to pass through! They were thankful to have avoided a lengthy detour.
Then the students had an opportunity to do some pond dipping. With nets and buckets in hand, everyone started hunting for unique insects, fish, and larvae. It was pretty fascinating what they came up with, and everyone was so excited to share their discoveries with their classmates. Ranger Gord even let us stay longer than planned so that we could continue exploring, as the class was so enthralled with exploring their findings.
The children had a wonderful time venturing through the park, traversing bridges, expanding their learning of our Science unit, ‘Habitats and Communities’, and observing God’s creation in an absolutely stunning location. The weather couldn’t have been better, which made the field trip fantastic!
