Field Trips

 

At this time we are not attending any field trips.

Field trips are an important part of the SOTG experience.   At SOTG, we feel field trips are an opportunity for students to build upon what they learn in school through more interactive and hands on experiences.  A variety of field trips are planned throughout the school year to reflect our monthly theme and to foster a connection to our local community.  Depending on the children’s program, they will attend one or two ‘big/away’ field trips per month.  Past trips have included farm tours, museum visits, grocery and home improvement stores, exploring natural areas, and more. Parents chaperone, drive children, and join in the fun too.

Local outings

The children also participate in local community trips monthly as well.  These are typically walking trips and include library story time, the post office, and a trick or treat parade through the shops on the green.

School visitors

In addition to the away trips, the school arranges for visitors from the local community to come in and talk with the students.  These have included librarians, dentists, firemen among others.  There are also ‘mystery readers’ that come in to read stories to the children.
