The week our Yurt Program kids got to go to the VIU Deep Bay Marine Field Station for a field trip. They fit a lot into the time we were there. First we got to feed the fish.
Then we went to the touch tanks. We had to be very gentle with these animals.

We had to be very careful with theses prickly creatures!


Beautiful sea star.

Then we drew and built a habitat for a crab.
Then it was out to the forest to look for colours…
…and newts in the pond!

What a fabulous day! Thank you Michi & Amy.
