 For a recent Friday field trip, our students had the incredible opportunity to visit ABC 12 News! During the visit, they got a behind-the-scenes look at how news is made, including watching a live broadcast in action. The kids explored the Control Room, learning about the technology and teamwork required to produce a news segment. They also toured one of the station’s cutting-edge news vans, gaining insight into how stories are captured and shared with the community. This hands-on experience sparked curiosity about media and communication, showing our students the importance of storytelling and the many roles that contribute to keeping the public informed. 

 For one of our exciting Friday field trips, we brought the adventure to campus by hosting Kid Chemist! This interactive program captivated our students with hands-on science experiments, sparking curiosity and a love for learning. The kids explored the fascinating world of chemistry through engaging activities designed to make complex concepts accessible and fun. From bubbling reactions to colorful transformations, the experience encouraged critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. By bringing science to life in such an interactive way, Kid Chemist helped our students see how exciting and accessible STEM can be!

Recently, our WFA students enjoyed a heartwarming field trip to Regency at Grand Blanc, a senior living home, where they spent time playing games and coloring with the residents. This experience was more than just a fun outing—it was an opportunity for our children to learn the importance of kindness, empathy, and building connections across generations. Interacting with the residents taught our students how small gestures of joy and companionship can make a big difference in someone’s day, fostering a sense of community and compassion that will stay with them for years to come.

Another exciting field trip took our students to an unforgettable experience hosted by Uncivilized Vitality, where they learned essential survival skills. The kids were taught how to start a fire using a ferro rod and build shelters to protect against the elements. This hands-on adventure not only sparked their curiosity but also built confidence, resilience, and teamwork. By engaging with these foundational skills, our students at WFA gained a deeper appreciation for self-reliance and problem-solving—lessons that extend far beyond the outdoors and into their everyday lives.
