🌿✨ Environmental Education Day = Success! ✨🌿
Terra Nova was thrilled to host Swan River Montessori for a day of outdoor learning and discovery in our school forest! 🌲
Our amazing Terra Nova students stepped up as leaders, guiding stations and sharing the wonders of nature with curiosity and joy. 🌎💚
This annual event is one we always look forward to — a celebration of connection, curiosity, and the great outdoors. 🌞🌿

🌟 Looking back at our very first All-School Trip with Terra Nova to Schroeder Park brings nothing but sweet memories! 🌲💫
It was community building at its finest—a time to grow stronger together, celebrate friendships, and practice the life skills that make our school community shine. 🌍🤝
We celebrate by playing, laughing, and learning together out in the real world—because that’s what Terra Nova is all about. 🏞️✨

🌲🔥 Middle School Camping = Success! 🔥🌲
Huge shoutout to Alex for planning an unforgettable adventure! 🌟 From roasting hot dogs 🌭 and giant marshmallows for s’mores 🍫🔥, to tag games in the woods 🏃♂️🌳 and campfire tunes 🎶—the fun never stopped.
We camped in tents ⛺ under the stars ✨ and slept great… except for our turkey friends 🦃 strolling by in the morning to say hello.
And of course, Drew couldn’t resist sneaking in some science ✨—with metals burning to show off a rainbow of colors. 🌈🔬
Memories made, laughter shared, and a perfect mix of fun + learning in our school forest. 🏕️💫

🌲 Our High School Leadership students are getting their hands dirty for a great cause! They're actively removing invasive buckthorn from our campus while developing essential motor skills - practicing locomotor movements (walking, running, carrying), non-locomotor skills (bending, stretching, balancing), and manipulative skills (gripping, lifting, coordinating tools).
This hands-on environmental stewardship project is preparing our outdoor space for an exciting low ropes course and future outdoor classrooms! 💪
Students are gaining authentic life skills, including teamwork, problem-solving, environmental awareness, and physical fitness - all while making a real difference for our local ecosystem. It's amazing to see learning come alive outside the traditional classroom!
