College Settlement Outdoor School adventure

     Our 5th and 6th grade students took their annual adventure trip to College Settlement Outdoor School in Horsham this week. They enjoyed wonderful weather and great times as they bonded through team-building activities, games, environmental lessons, and just plain old fun! The 6th graders did a fantastic job of welcoming their 5th grade friends to "the ways" of College Settlement, too. 

Mrs. DeLuca and I thought the students did a fantastic job of participating in all of our activities and thank our Teacher Naturalists Josh, "Old Man" Mike, Charles, Tim, Whittier, and Chelsea for imparting their knowledge and love of the outdoors through fun and engaging experiences.

Enjoy this year's pictures of our wonderful time at the College Settlement Outdoor School!
