Learning from Visitors

Our lovely and talented art teacher Tracy seems to know everyone! One of the people she knows lives right down the street from our school. Her name is Carol, and she does bird rescue. Carol brought in "Cloud", a very old and beautiful pigeon. Cloud was so patient as children watched him, learned all about him (as well as why some birds migrate and some don't), and then used their powers of keen observation to draw him.

Thank you Tracy for arranging this special visit. We learn so much from the visitors to our school.

Carol and Cloud

Such a beauty.

Owen is entranced.

It was great having the live pigeon present during her talk to make it more interesting for the children.
