Our fall camping trip to Camp Sealth on Vashon Island was a chance for students to bond as a learning community. Over the course of the three day excursion, the students laughed together and struggled together. They had a chance to be in awe of nature and sit together in silence in the dark.
Outside of our regular setting, every student has the chance to stretch and grow into the 2019-2020 version of themselves. We have planned activities and downtime for students. This year, during their downtime, the student volunteered to clean the camp's gaga pit. They also spent a considerable amount of free time building a dam on the beach. Others, opting not to take up shovels, set off on hikes in the woods with Alex, our lower school aide who used to work at Camp Sealth and who knows the trails well.
Please enjoy these photos from the trip.
