Toronto Waldorf - Day 1

Yesterday the students from Toronto Waldorf School started their immersion into marine biology on the Huntsman campus.  They went on the research vessel, the Fundy Spray, they studied plankton and marine invertebrates in the lab, and explored the intertidal zone as the tide was going out.  The weather was beautiful and it was a great to finish the day on the beach!
