Kindergarten goes ‘under the sea’

Apr 19th, 2012

LAKE WALES – Hillcrest Elementary kindergarten students went ‘under the sea’ last week (April 12) for an exciting encounter with aquatic creatures at the Florida Aquarium. The field trip helped students prepare for their Oceans unit of study, and was partially funded with a grant from Target, Inc.
