We love snow! The benefits of kids playing in the snow are numerous.

Social and Emotional Growth

Outdoor play in the snow often involves group activities, which promote social interaction and teamwork. Whether children are working together to build a snowman or taking turns on a sled, they learn important social skills like sharing, cooperation, and communication. Furthermore, spending time outdoors has been shown to reduce stress and improve mood, contributing to emotional well-being (Bowler et al., 2010).

What a beautiful Autumn day to take a walk outside with friends.

“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain”

We love flowers. Thanks to The Freking Farm for donating beautiful flowers for our students to create their own individual arrangements.

School’s been back for almost 2 weeks. We are all so happy to be back on the trail.
