In this 3 hour mixed age class, we’ll enjoy experiencing the great outdoors in local Vancouver parks based in east Vancouver. Children will be able to experience the freedom to run, learn at their own pace and deepen social connections with their peers. They will have opportunities to learn about the different kinds of plants in our parks, search for local wildlife and learn to care for our parks. Through all of this we will assist in teaching the children on being environmental stewards for our fair city and offer them reflective skills in observing their natural surroundings as well as themselves.
Children will arrive with their own snack and water.
