What a week filled with excavating, uncovering fossils, watching the thawing of prehistoric creatures, and discovering the amazing traits of oh, so many dinos.

The football punt, basketball toss, golf putt, and rope jumping tested our eye-hand coordination and large motor skills. The soccer sweep, ninja kicking, and net catch w ..read more

During our first week of Summer Camp, we blasted off into space to explore and discover! We got a closer look at space rocks and even made jetpacks for our upcoming trip into space! Did you know Saturn is light enough to float on water? And that Uranus and Neptune are known as the ice giants because they are the coldest in the solar system? We learned an abundant amount of facts on each planet and the galaxy! To bring this information to life, we had an interactive, hands-on planetarium experience right here at school! We entered a giant inflated bubble and saw the most amazing sights! The pla ..read more
