A Walking Field Trip




To finish off our community unit we did a walking field trip of our local community!  We were welcomed by many businesses!  We saw so many things. . . . here we are investigating and learning about our local community.








 We actually got to go into the bank vault!
Learning all about the bank!





Have you ever wondered how they store all the food that appears on the shelves at the grocery store?  Behind the scenes at Safeway!

Learning all about how clothes get dry cleaned!
Off to the next store!



The pharmacy . .  we learned all about storing medicines safely and how people get their medicine.
Off to another business. . . .

The deli . . .   there were some delicious foods in there!

 Just before we were to go the library for our tour we came across a fire truck. . . it was so exciting.  They stopped to talk to us.  They gave us lots of information about fire safety.


 Some of us even got to go inside the truck!


Snack time before our library tour. . .
The fabulous librarian at Ocean Park Library.  She is an amazing storyteller. . .  If you ever have a chance to visit when she is there you are in for a real treat!
Checking out a book!



 Reading is always a favourite activity of ours!






















Thank you to all the business in Ocean Park who took the time to talk to us and teach us about their jobs!  We had a great time!
