SKs Travel into Space!

Jenn Vipond
Last Thursday, the Senior Kindergarten students had an epic adventure in space. The day began with our astronauts preparing for blast off by ensuring their helmets and jet packs were secure and ready.

Then, they headed off to their rocketship in the gym where Astronomy in Action was waiting with their portable planetarium. Inside the planetarium, the students blasted off and toured all around our solar system. They saw the sun rise and set, discovered the moon's phases, visited different planets, traveled through a wormhole, and even made it back to Earth just in time for lunch. It was a truly out-of-this-world experience!

We finished the day with some space-themed crafts, activities, and games. It was a day filled with wonder and one we will never forget! Who knows? We may have some future astronauts in our midst!

Land Acknowledgment

The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
