Forest School meets Adventure Camp to put an exciting spin on learning hands on this summer!

Your child(ren) will be mentally engaged by wilderness discovery, canoeing, mountain biking (campers of levels are welcome) bush tools, nature art, camp fires, pond studies, shelter building and many other Forest School activities. They will be physically fulfilled while they learn canoe skills, slack-lining, ninja warrior, biking option and more! Let’s not forget this is SUMMER camp… so we will also be busy with water play, making ice-cream, sing-alongs and games.

Forest School gives students an opportunity to step out of their traditional classroom and into a play based and emergent learning environment that happens in the natural world.  This program compliments the traditional school system by allowing students to learn confidence, resilience, risk assessment, social intelligence and so much more.  Don’t worry, we still have opportunities to learn things like literacy and numeracy and other subjects, but these lessons happen organically.   We introduce these lessons based on what the students are interested in. 

8:30 am to 3:30 pm
