We had a wonderful morning watching the Braeside 4th grade students release the trout they have worked so hard to take care of this year. They participated in the program Trout in the Classroom and released their fingerlings into the stream. Thank you to everyone who came out to help and support them!

Bye, bye trout!
Bye, bye, aquatic friends!
We hope to see you when you're swimmin' down the stream...
There go our fingerlings,
they're doin' fine
And now they're lookin' for a place to dine.
Look out you stoneflies!
And mayflies too!
Our little fishies are comin' after you!
Bye, bye trout! Bye, bye aquatic friends!
We hope to see you when you're swimmin' down the stream...
Jim! We saw the picture of you playing guitar. We want that too! All of the high school kids (and teachers)agree.
ReplyDeleteWe will ask Jim to bring his guitar next session - but only if you high schoolers aren't too cool to sing a round of "Bye, Bye, Trout" with us!
