11/16 Elementary School Field Trip

As a reward for all the students' hard work, the elementary kids took a trip to Manyueyuan National Park. 🌳 The day brimmed with discovery as the young adventurers immersed themselves in the park's lush, diverse vegetation. 🍃

Guided by seasoned park rangers, the children embarked on an engaging exploration of the park's botanical wonders. 🌿 Eager minds absorbed knowledge about native plants, from the towering Japanese cedar to the delicate ferns carpeting the forest floor. 🌲 Their curiosity bloomed as they learned about the unique characteristics and roles these plants play in the park's ecosystem. 🌺

However, this excursion wasn't solely about learning; it was about fostering a deep respect for nature. 🌍 The students embraced the 'Leave No Trace' initiative, understanding the significance of preserving the park's beauty for future generations. ♻️ With newfound understanding, they diligently ensured that their presence left no imprint, following guidelines to tread lightly and respect the natural environment. 👣

A highlight of the trip was the hands-on activity where the children crafted coasters from the aromatic Japanese cedar, a tree they had just learned about. 🌳🎨 #NatureEducation#LeaveNoTrace#botanicaladventure

為獎勵學生們在歷史展的努力，小學部舉行了滿月園國家公園🌳外戶外教學。這是充滿了探索樂趣的一天，年輕的冒險家們被公園茂密而多樣的植物包圍著。🍃

在經驗豐富的公園解說員的引領下，孩子們開始了植物的奇妙探險🌿。渴望知識的心靈吸收了當地植物的豐富知識，從高聳的日本雪松到覆蓋森林地面的嬌嫩蕨類。🌲當他們了解這些植物在公園生態系統中的獨特特徵和角色時，他們的好奇心開花了。🌺

然而，這次戶外教學不僅僅只是學習，更培養孩子們對自然的深深敬意。🌍學生們響應「無痕山林」的倡議，瞭解保護山林之美對未來世代的重要性♻️。在新的理解下，他們努力確保自己的存在不留下痕跡，遵循指南輕輕踩踏，尊重自然環境。👣

此次戶外教學還有一大亮點，就是孩子們親手製作香氣撲鼻的日本雪松杯墊的，讓他們學習到的樹木的一種創意應用。🌳🎨
