Young Explorers Bring Autumn into Science Class

On warm autumn days, the Lower School students embark on a delightful adventure, transforming science class into a magical exploration of the natural world. Nature, after all, is the heart of scientific discovery. The girls travel along a winding path that is filled with trees, vibrant shrubs, and blooming flowers. As they walk, they gather around a dozen fall leaves in brilliant shades of red, yellow, and brown.
