Igniting Curiosity and Confidence through Experiences in the Natural World.

β€œBalarat is excited to offer programming for 3rd and 5th grade students for the 21-22 SY. At this time, given that field trips and travel are approved, Balarat is preparing to offer 2-day overnights for 5th graders. A non-overnight day trip option is also being explored to ensure that our students still have opportunities to learn at Balarat. Of course, as with everything else over the last 18 months, all of this is subject to health conditions as they evolve. Balarat will continue to follow all district COVID related health and safety protocols.Β

Fairview peak is the hardest and most challenging hike at Balarat! A class today hiking down from the peak showed the class hiking up some love by creating a spirit tunnel! 
It really boosted spirits among everyone and made the rest of the day even more amazing!!! 

These kids have a heart of gold πŸ’›

We had the pleasure of hanging out with our friends over at Maxwell Elementary today! We persevered through the crazy wind and explored outdoors for science. When the wind got to be too much we headed back to their classroom for team games! What an awesome day of problem solving and working together!! 😊
