Hello St. Columba Students,
Review: If you have been following me since we started Distance Learning, you would know that I decided to find technology in things I enjoy outside of the classroom to give you a glimpse of what I do when I am at home “since we are at home all the time anyway”. First, we looked at gardening and then cooking. Now, another side of me is the joy of recreation. Technology plays an increasingly influential and important role in outdoor recreation and adventure. The last 10 years, in particular, have seen a virtual explosion of technological developments in the outdoors, ranging from clothes to equipment such as signaling devices and protective gear.
Check out these two videos.
This first video is a place where you can take your kids to summer camp (when restrictions are lifted) and they are building a pool too. It is only 5 minutes from St. Columba. Enjoy!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GogKAOr6M58
