These classes are excited to be consolidating their learning about living things, which have features and behaviours that help them survive in their environment, and have life cycles adapted to their environment. As well, students will explore how healthy communities recognize and respect the diversity of individuals and care for the local environment; individuals have rights and responsibilities as global citizens. They will engage in physical activity which helps us develop movement skills and physical literacy, at moderate to vigorous intensity levels to benefit all aspects of well-being.
Catholic Principles of Learning/First People's Principles of Learning are addressed by this experience as well, notably:
TRADITION - Catholic Education guides us in the selection of excellent content, pedagogy and resources in the pursuit of Truth through faith and reason/Learning recognizes the role of indigenous knowledge.
COMMUNION/COMMUNITY - Catholic Education is inclusive and welcoming where every student is nurtured in developing a right relationship with God and others by balancing the rights of the individual with the Common Good/Learning ultimately supports the well-being of the self, the family, the community, the land, the spirits, and the ancestors.
This is all made possible thanks to the generosity of our parents who fundraise for our school. Therefore, this trip will be no extra charge.
