Friday Feeling | Thriving in Outdoor Education – The Ottawa Catholic School Board

For this week’s #ocsbFridayFeeling, students and educators used the great outdoors to the fullest, building structures, rethinking recess, enjoying outdoor education and having a blast blowing bubbles. Schools welcomed new Canadian Citizens, celebrated Asian Heritage Month and observed Pentecost by shining their light brightly.

Shine your light brightly this Pentecost and always. @StRitaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsbHope pic.twitter.com/G2MpUZtsJy

Thankful for the @ocsbArts incentive for funding our visit with paper collage artist Rebecca Clouâtre. She worked with grade 2 Ss @StDominicOCSB today to create collages based on the themes of nature and environmentalism. 🌎🌱🎨 @ocsbEco @OttCatholicSB pic.twitter.com/32Vh5Z03ib
