Thrive

We are having the best time learning through play..exploring, questioning, touching, creating, tasting! We’ve talked about how hard work can help to reset our nervous systems, and how knowing where our food comes from and how it’s grown can help us to choose the best options to build our immune systems and give our bodies what they need to thrive.

A sampling of the art these creative kiddos have been working on thus far..such talent!

Bugs, bugs, bugs 🐛 🪳 🐞!! We have some little entomologists in this crew, they are just loving observing and learning about the creatures we find.

My beautiful, spicy girl has completed a chapter. Graduated from grade 8, with the French award! So excited and ready for the next chapter in her book and we’ll equipped for high school. She had a fantastic year with teachers I am so grateful for. So many amazing friends but I only had approval to post a few, each and every one of those boys and girls are so important but I’m not going to risk posting without the final 👍🏻! This kid has not had an easy go but her fire and determination have brought her this far and I know will ensure she is successful in all she does. Here’s to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them. Fly high baby girl, can’t wait to see what you do next. ❤️
