A day off from school is a great day to explore the outdoors. Two great camps are offered on PIR days this winter and spring. For both camps students will need to bring warm walking boots, warm jacket, hat and gloves, water bottle, and a sack lunch.

Adapting to the Elements (Jan.18) - nature exploration investigating the amazing adaptations that allow plants and animals to survive winter in Montana. We’ll wander through the woods and follow the tracks of animals while discovering the wintertime world. Students will make their own plaster casts of an animal track and a bird feeder to bring home.
 
Leap Into Spring (Apr.12) - birds will be returning, leaves will be budding, and snow should be melting. Spring is a time to rediscover the lively outdoors. We will capture the magic of spring in art. Each student will make their own nature journal and then sketch, draw, or paint their way into spring.
