Environmental Exploration



OSC has started working on an environmental awareness project. The purpose of the project is to build awareness about the environment and to learn about sustainable resource practices such as ‘reduce, reuse, and recycle’. So far Nolan and Jasmine have been very productive in creating a script for a video on a news report regarding energy conservation. The children are being guided through the research process for their chosen topics in order to find facts to help strengthen their message. This week we will be shooting and begin editing their videos and our goal is to hopefully show our final project when all is complete.

More to come,

Peter

Challenge Accepted!

Greetings All,

As we continue into fall a new challenge has arrived at our Out of School Care program. This challenge presents the children with an opportunity to earn tokens while following the guidelines listed on our challenge board.   As a group they can earn tokens by signing in and out, following the rules, washing their hands, cleaning up and being polite. They can also earn tokens individually by being good leaders, including others, and being accountable for their actions.  Our ultimate goal for this challenge is to encourage children to be respectful and responsible.



Take care,

Carolyn
