We connect children to nature through play and hands-on exploration. Our outdoor learning environment allows each child to grow in respect and understanding of nature, other people, and themselves. We believe that offering children a supportive community of teachers, mentors and peers allows children to flourish and grow in a positive way. We believe in the importance of connecting children to the land. We acknowledge that our program takes place on the unceded lands of the Ktunaxa, Sylix, and Sinixt Peoples
