Kindy Field Trip “Who We Are Unit”
As part of our Unit of Inquiry “Who we are”, K-1 students have been learning about how the choices we make affect our health and wellbeing. From the beginning, our students have inquired about their daily choices and how those take them closer to a healthy or unhealthy lifestyle. We have talked about our physical, mental and emotional health exploring ways to support each of these aspects in our daily lives.

To finalize this wonderful journey, our students had the opportunity to put their learning into practice by having their own balanced day. They got to prepare by themselves a healthy picnic incorporating the 5 food groups they’ve learned about and take it to Mertasari beach. After enjoying a delicious meal, they attended a mindfulness and kids yoga session where they actively experienced the importance of exercise and maintaining a healthy body and mind.

It was a great closing to our unit, and we are extremely proud to see how our students put into practice what they learned throughout the term.

• If a student misses an activity many times when present at school, s/he may be removed from the class and replaced with a child on the waiting list.
• Students are expected to arrive at the activity on time and encouraged to remain at the activity for the scheduled period because every minute counts!
