Building Boats at the Creek

Today all our district’s StrongStart centres spent the morning outside. 
Our centre went to a creek to build boats.

We started by sharing a book showing a variety of boats. 
Giving them ideas and names for the many different kinds they could make.

We collected sticks and bark along the path but I also brought supplies from school.

After spending more than hour building and launching the boats we headed to the beach for a picnic.

We have many beautiful classrooms for us to play and learn right in our backyard.
