Welcome to BCS Nature Connection
We’re so glad you’re here! At BCS, we’ve found that the best way to tell our Nature Connection story is through pictures.
Our students experience a wide range of beautiful moments, diverse habitats, and meaningful learning opportunities in nature. Each class — and each student within it — begins their Nature Connection journey at a different place. We intentionally offer experiences that meet students where they are while also gently nudging them beyond their comfort zones. This stretch helps build sensory awareness, observation skills, and a deeper knowledge of the natural world.
We invite you to follow along with us by clicking on the photo journal links below. Looking through the pictures together can spark rich conversations at home. Your student doesn’t need to appear in the photos to connect with them — the images can prompt discussions about:
The science concepts they’re learning in class and how those connect to real-world experiences
What they know about the habitats pictured
How they feel when they spend time in nature
Sharing the photo journals is a simple but powerful way to spark curiosity, inspire reflection, and start meaningful dinner-table conversations.
