🌱✨ Our 4th and 5th graders had an amazing time on Monday, May 11th when the Orlando Science Center came to visit!
Each group participated in a hands-on lesson all about the agriculture that happens right here in Florida every day. From learning how food grows to exploring the science behind it, our students were curious, engaged, and excited every step of the way! 🌞🍊
A big thank you to the Orlando Science Center for bringing science to life for our students! 💚

🎉 2nd Grade Field Trip Fun at Hunsader Farms! 🌾🐐
Our Memorial Elementary 2nd graders had an amazing time on their field trip last week to Hunsader Farms—it was a complete success! 🙌
The day began with a scenic train ride around the farm where students got to see a variety of plants and animals. 🌿🛻 Afterward, they enjoyed lunch under the trees and some fun time on the playground. 🌳🍎
One of the highlights? Each student received a cup of feed and got to hand-feed animals like goats, sheep, donkeys, pigs, horses, an emu, llamas, lemurs, birds, a capybara, a tortoise, and even a porcupine! 🐴🦙🦔
The fun didn’t stop there—they explored a charming village featuring buildings like a school, church, courthouse, and jail, and had a blast with bikes and games. 🚲🏛️
2nd grade had a blast... but let’s just say there were some sleepy kids on the ride home! 😴💚
