JODIMS Senior Falls Studies 2026. Part 4.

We were so lucky to be able to visit Clayquot Campus and the Naa'Waya'Sum Coastal Indigenous Gardens. It is transitioning from a conventional botanical garden to an Indigenous-led conservation and knowledge-sharing site under the IISAAK OLAM Foundation and the Clayoquot Indigenous Conservation Innovation Centre.

Students roamed the 12 hectares finding interesting carvings and sculptures, a Tohoku Tsunami Memorial, and access to the nearby bird sanctuary and mudflats. There were even bear sightings!

Thank you to Terry, President of the IISAAK OLAM Foundation who welcomed us onto the campus and shared with us the knowledge, culture, and history of the Tla-o-qui-aht peoples.

JODIMS Senior Fall Studies 2026. Part 3.

It was a privilege to be able to have guides from the Raincoast Education Society lead our students on a hike through the varied forests ape along the Wild Pacific Trail around Amphitrite Point. There, the kids learned about forest ecology and boomed and the various strata of the rainforest.

After a while among the trees, the students emerged seaside on the beach where they conducted a species survey using a beach seine and got to get up close with the local marine life.

JODIMS Senior Fall Studies 2026. Part 2.

The Ucluelet Aquarium is renowned as Canada's first catch-and-release facility, it showcases the rich marine biodiversity of the Barkley and Clayoquot Sounds using a sustainable, ethical approach. Our students got a tour of their innovative pump systems as well as some hands-on experiences with the local marine life!

Thank you to all the staff there for the tour and for enthusiastically answering all the students ' questions! We are big supporters of your work!

JODIMS Senior Fall Studies 2026. Part 1.

We took the Grade 10s, 11s, and 12s over to the island for the week and our first stop was Coombs (hi goats!) then Port Alberni.

Thank you to Sylvia at the Alberni Valley Museum for sharing with our students the history of Port Alberni and the Hupačasath and Tseshaht peoples. They had a blast in holding some real historical objects, learning about Buster the Ferrisaurus and getting up close with some coprolite (loool)!

Early the next morning, we packed up and continued on our journey towards the Pacific Ocean!
