Our school has a program called Exploratories where children choose an activity they wish to pursue for four half days during the month of October. Choices range from swimming, golfing, bracelet making, soapstone carving, babysitters course, cooking, baking, fall safety ,,, the list goes on. The children love it and teachers get a chance to engage them outside the regular classroom.
I have a walking club. With eleven Grade 5 and 6 boys, you can imagine the energy! They walked or I should say gamboled, ran, jumped, zig-zagged, skipped and swaggered. It was a glorious fall day in HV-GB. We checked out where some of them lived, the jumps they constructed for their bikes, the creek where they caught frogs last summer and every friendly pooch they could get close to. What a wonderful day!
