Ella said, “I liked that we were able to have a lot of time on the water so that we could talk and have fun with our friends and enjoy the beautiful scenery.” The evening speaker, affectionately known as “The Birdman,” was another favorite of the students. “The Birdman was amazing because we got to see a lot of birds and how they adapted to the environment,” said James. Students also went on a half-day hike, and Mark said, “Being in nature was really fun.” All in all, the 5th grade students had a great time bonding with their classmates while enjoying nature.
