Splash into Water!

We love the Kindergarten Krowd! A field trip to the Water Resource Center is a fun way for students to learn all about water. Join us for a water-themed story and a hands-on learning activity. Then, rotate through learning stations to explore our local water cycle, where our drinking water comes from, and the importance of clean water to sustain all life on Earth.

This is a great option for homeschool groups and young scout troops too. Located at 1004 N Freya Street, typical visits to the Water Resource Center are 1.5 hours.

Once we receive your Field Trip Request to visit the Water Resource Center (WRC), we’ll email you to begin jointly planning the date, time and activities that are best suited for your class and what best aligns with your curriculum. Field trips to the WRC are in high demand in the spring. If a fall field trip can fit into your curriculum, there will be more available dates from which you can choose.
