School Field Trips to SSNSC
At The Science Center
The Science Center's environmental education
programs offer indoor and outdoor learning activities. Out on the
trails, children explore diverse wildlife habitats: woodlands, meadows,
wetlands, and Jacobs Pond. At the nature center, children meet wildlife
up close, take part in real scientific investigations, and enjoy
hands-on exhibits.
Nature programs are held year round at the Science Center, with special
topics offered seasonally in the fall, winter, spring, and summer.
Programs
are tailored to the learning needs of each group.
All of our education programs are led by experienced
teacher/naturalists. One naturalist is assigned to each group of 10-12
children. Program lengths refer to time spent with a naturalist.
Visitors are welcome to extend their stay by hiking the trails,
picnicking, and touring the exhibit halls on their own. Admission to the
nature center and use of our facilities are included in the program
cost. Special formats, including extended and all-day programs, are
available.
