We were picked up at a Park & Drive by Marie and headed to vocational stops that incorporated all of our subjects that everyone got to come along to! The Greater Westerly Pawcatuck Area Chamber of Commerce was first, and we were given a quick tour plus a quacker in celebration of their very successful duck race the previous week.
Next was Westerly Police Department where we were shown around by a scared young constable - and there were a number of good photo opportunities, including in the jail! We also got to play in the police car, tooting, flashing and fiddling with the knobs in the car!!
We then went to a top of the range cottage centre, a dedicated community for the care Alzheimer's, and then on for lunch at a local Italian restaurant.
It was back to school in the afternoon with our new driver, Steve, where we went to see their new very high tech maths and science wing. Later on in the afternoon we went to Ocean House and were shown around to see how the other half live! Unfortunately we couldn't afford to stay at $1,000 a night for the cheap rooms, and $5,000 for the suite (GSE budget wouldnt stand it!).
We then visited the Watch Hill Lighthouse before going for supper and a presentation at the Westerly Rotary Club.
