"Enjoyed it as much as the kids!"

Students said: 

"Dear McKay Ave School. Hello! I'm pretty sure this is one of the best field trips
ever! Thank you for making this possible!"

"I had an outstanding time at the school house! Not only was I entertained, I also learned a lot about the past. I liked the slates and wish we used them now-a-days. The same thing goes for the spelling bee! My experience was really enjoyable and I hope we can come back another year!”

“I really like using the iron. I have never used one before. I thought it was super fun! I think I actually made the cloth on the ironing board really smooth. This chore inspired me to iron at home. I hope I do that soon!”

“I really enjoy the grandpa’s tool shed because I got to use old tool like drill and hammers, and I got the feeling of how people built and fixed things in the olden days.”

"I had so much fun at Grandma's place. It was one of the best field trips. It was so cool learning and working like we are from the past. I hope we can come again!"
