BCA Outdoor School 2010

The 7th and 8th Grade of BCA spent a weekend at Outdoor School! They had 4 days up at Camp Living Water, the Mather's camp, studying God's fabulous creation and thinking about God as creator of all!!

Each morning the students met for an overview of the program and instructions on what would take place during the day!

Friday they did a plot study and looked at a small 1 meter square of a field to find as much life as was there!
Then they worked in teams to record their observations


There were two hikes through the woods as they discussed the ecology of the forest


Saturday afternoon was spent studying the life in the creek

December Review

December was a month full of many activities at BCA!!

The Choir had their first concert for the BCA community on a beautiful snowy evening!!



Cafe Night was a big success as the secondary students gathered for dinner, games and a time just to be together!



On the last day of classes before Christmas break we had an all school chapel and were challenged to think more deeply about the birth of Christ by Miss Susan White, our school librarian.

On the elementary side of the street the children enjoyed making gingerbread houses and eating the candy as they decorated their houses!

The BCA student Christmas Party hosted at the Graham's house. Lots of Fun, Food and a surprising gift exchange!!
