Lower El outdoor education
Last week, the Lower Elementary classes took turns visiting Circle R Ranch as part of our Lower El Outdoor Education program. Developed in collaboration with Circle R Ranch, the program will invite the students to experience outdoor lessons and activities in each season, so that by the time the children complete their three-year cycle in Elementary, they’ll have had a lesson about each season.
“We must study the correlation between life and the environment. In nature all is correlated.
This is the purpose of nature. Nature is not concerned just with the conservation of individual life or with the betterment of itself. It is a harmony, a plan of construction.
Everything fits into the plan: rocks, earth, water, plants, man, etc.”
Everything fits into the plan: rocks, earth, water, plants, man, etc.”
