Our whole school spent the week exploring, discovering, experimenting, and thinking like little scientists! From rocks and minerals to hands-on experiments and creative projects, our classrooms were filled with curiosity and excitement. 🌎🔍

We even had a special visit from a scientist from The Science Crew, who helped make our week of learning extra memorable! Our students had the opportunity to explore rocks, fossils, and minerals through hands-on activities and experiments. 🔬🪨✨

⚔️🏰 We had such a fun time at the Daze & Knights Festival! 🏰⚔️

We loved setting up our knights-themed table, meeting new families, and sharing what makes our center so special! 💛

One of our favorite parts was getting to visit with our current families and reconnect with families from our past. 🥰 There’s nothing better than seeing familiar faces!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello and support us! We’re so grateful to be part of this amazing community! 🛡️✨

Our toddlers had so much fun learning about recycling and reusing materials! They explored how old newspapers can be given a new purpose by turning them into something completely new.

The children worked together to make their very own recycled paper, getting hands-on experience with the recycling process while practicing fine-motor skills and teamwork. 📰✨

We loved watching their curiosity and excitement as they discovered that something old can become something new! 💚
