Our afternoon program spends it’s time at Trout Lake throughout the year. Trout Lake offers a large area to explore throughout the year where we enjoy the delights of the beach, the cover of the cedars and the adventures that the Golden Hill bring us just to name a few spots! We learn about the local ecology of the bird life, the pond as well as the trees and all animals and life that exist within the park. We are honoured to have this space as our classroom and take great pride in caring for the park while we are in it.
What a wonderful fall term we’ve had at Muddy Boot Prints! So many strong connections are being formed and offering opportunities for independent and imaginative play. Winter Break is happening from Dec 23rd to Jan 3rd. We’ll be back in session the week of January 6th.
Have a wonderful holiday season and we’ll see you next year!
