• Pre-Registration is required.
• This OFF Site program is offered at Percy Pegler School 69 Okotoks Drive, Okotoks Delegates are responsible for their own, round-trip transportation.

Three teachers took on the challenge of teaching the Program of Studies outside. They did this in grade 2,4 and 5. The results they saw were amazing academic improvement, engagement and social-emotional health. We will share our story, some data and then experience what nature based learning is about. We will model the day just like we do with kids to inspire teachers to embark on this amazing journey of learning.
