“A direct and respectful relationship with the natural world refreshes the human spirit and teaches the important ideas of recurring cycles and cause and effect. Students learn to become stewards of the earth and of future generations.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We try to live into this Design Principle at Realms!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
