Out & About

We believe real-life experiences enrich classroom academics.

Middleton Plantation

The 8th graders were better able to comprehend life on a plantation by visiting a plantation and having the history retold by the guides.  This reinforced their unit on how the southern economy was so reliant upon rice and the circumstances of African-American enslaved people.

Serpentarium & Botany Bay

Charleston Museum

7th social studies curriculum is enhanced by a visit to the museum.

Hanahan Library

Our K5s took a stroll to our local library.  At Divine Redeemer, we know the power of good book.  We strive to develop a love of reading early, knowing that it is the key to a vibrant future.  Our K5s had a great day meeting the librarians, seeing the many resources of a good library, and getting some fresh air along the way.

3rd and 4th graders got a well deserved break at the end of the year with a day hanging out with reptiles and having a blast on the beach at Botany Bay.

Hunley Submarine

Our students took advantage of visiting the Hunley submarine which is super close to our campus.  This was a two-fold learning opportunity: the science behind the raising of the vessel and the delicate restoration and preservation process, as well as, the history of the first submarine used in battle.

Charleston Aquarium

Not all fun during this visit to the aquarium!  As you can see, this was an off-campus science class learning about water systems.
