On Thursday, April 29th, Division 4 (including Ms. Lloyd, Ms. Swan and some enthusiastic parent volunteers) visited the Serpentine Wildlife Area in Surrey. It was a fantastic trip! When they arrived they discussed the four different types of wetland habitats and the actions that humans can take to positively impact wetlands and wildlife. They learned about the invertebrates that inhabit wetland waters and classified live invertebrates found in aquariums. Students also enjoyed dip-netting in the marsh and participating in a nature walk. The class was able to walk around the marsh without disturbing nesting birds or other wildlife. The Serpentine Weildlife Area is a wonderful place for families to visit. Thank you to Ducks Unlimited for sponsoring their field trip!Upcoming Events: In June, the Grade 4 students will participate in a special Poetry Celebration. More information to follow.
