Adopt a Living Wedge Animal for Summer!
Our Matoaka Living Wedge animals are looking for adoptions for the summer! Normally, our wedge club kids take them home for the summer but this year the invitation is extended to ANY budding naturalists at our school. The animals can go home starting June 2 and would need to be returned to Matoaka the week of Open House in August. If you are interested, please contact Mr. Spence (in person or via email: john.spence@wjccschools.org) for guidelines and availability.
