Visitors, trips and hands on learning @ BDA!

Date:

            It was at a busy week at Blue Dragon Academy. The theme for the week was Community helpers. Luke Dreckman from Palisades State Park visited and brought different animal skins for the kids to see and feel. 

            On Tuesday, we ventured to The Children’s Museum in Brookings.

            Wednesday Garrick from the Gazette visited and talked with the kids about publishing the newspaper, and on Thursday if you heard sirens at Blue Dragon Academy, Bridget Oveson from the Garretson Ambulance visited the kids and talked with them about first aid.  Monday was also Earth Day.

            The Tiger and Monkey room walked around town to pick up garbage.  We want to thank Luke, Garrick, and Bridget for coming to BDA and teaching the kids about our great community.
