We are excited to explore, investigate and experience nature with the Nature Explorers! Opportunities for learning and nature connection will unfold naturally as we follow our curiosity and observe what is happening in the natural world around us. We aim to fulfil many Kindergarten through Grade 4 Science learning outcomes, and to foster a personal nature connection in each student.

​Parents will drop off/pick up students at a natural location; a more specific schedule of locations and dates will be sent out in the fall. Tentative Locations: Behind Wynndel Hall, Canyon Park, 52st Community Forest, Summit Creek Park, Schikurski Park
​Fees can be paid from your HomeLinks account. Jumpstart funding is available!
