Exciting Times at Standard Sand
Jump to Comments
We went on an incredible field trip yesterday. Not only did the kids come back to school wearing cool caps, fancy safety goggles, and carrying gold and gems, but they learned so much about the uses of sand and how it is mined. They also had an opportunity to plant marram grass, get into a front loader, pan for gold, learn about the birds that are housed there, and see the process sand goes through to get into your toothpaste and other uses… It was fascinating!

A big thanks to all the parent drivers. We appreciate you so much!
Here we are in action…
