PICTURES AND REPORTS


INCREDIBLES FIELD TRIP TO UVM ROPES COURSE   10-10-2019
UVM has an amazing ropes course in a patch of woods in South Burlington. It was there that the Incredibles gathered for a series of team-building challenges low to the ground. Once a team atmosphere had been established, and everyone's confidence boosted, those who wanted to tried out the high ropes course. Lots of courage was needed and encouragement supplied. The trip was a definite success.  LINK TO 25 PICTURES  Pictures provided by Donna Benoit. Thank you.








OBSTACLE COURSES
Almost every student loves running obstacle courses. The travelers had P.E. with Ms. Wight who had set up four courses to test out. These pictures are the few that were not blurry. LINK TO 34 PICTURES








MAKERSPACE
Triumph students learned about circuits and motors while building variations on jitterbots. Their projects turned out to look more like fans or windmills. They will continue to experiment with these projects in upcoming Friday mornings. 10-11-2019
