Magical May!
The Great Coral Reef
The kindergarten classes are suiting up in our scuba gear to dive deep into warm tropical seas so that we may explore the beautiful and abundant
life of the coral reef.
This is a very exciting unit of study. We will discuss the importance of preserving this amazing region so that the magical underwater city that is so full of life does not become a ghost town.

Tuesday Talk Special Visitors
Kindergarten Visits Upper School Biology Teacher
Mr. Michael Rice
Today kindergarteners went on a field study to the upper school. Biology teacher, Michael Rice, invited kindergarten to explore his classroom of various reptiles, amphibians, arachnids and fish. He talked more in depth about the rainforest and the various species found in each level. As a special treat he fed his Jackson's Chameleon crickets for breakfast. It was very exciting watching that very long tongue catch the cricket.
