Kent Park Field Trip - Wednesday, September 7th

Our first field trip is upon us! The K-6 program will be traveling to Kent Park together to meet Naturalist Brad and learn more about tallgrass prairies. On Wednesday, September 7th, we will spend the day at Kent Park touring their established prairie, learning about prairie plants and animals, and discussing the importance of prairie restoration. This field trip is an exciting introduction into our year long focus of bringing the prairie to Willowwind!

We will travel to Kent Park via school bus. Please bring $5 to help with transportation costs. You can drop off your child's transportation fee with me or with Ms. Amber at the Front Desk.

Willowwind students will enjoy their snacks and lunches at Kent Park. It will be a busy day so please be sure to pack your child's snacks and lunch accordingly. Make sure they have a water bottle to travel with. In addition, please make sure they dress accordingly, wearing comfy walking shoes and a sun hat.

Lastly, the school bus will be leaving shortly after 8:30. Your prompt morning arrival is important. We will return to Willowwind between 2:00 and 3:00.

We are excited for this opportunity upcoming school wide field trip! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
