Queen Alexandra Elementary Completes a WildED-Inspired Action Project!

2011-10-25T16:35:00.000-07:00

Dear WildED, Both classes have been fully engaged in a sustainability unit which culminated in the action plan to reduce our school's garbage. Throughout the process they have been making presentations to both staff and students to increase their motivation to fully participate in our overall goal. They have taken (WildED's) carbon footprint test and committed to at least one more action to reduce their mark on the world. They have done an amazing job and have already been recognized by the Vancouver School Board for their amazing efforts.

Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our (WildED) program and would love to hear about your programs next year. Take care and thanks, Grade 4/5 Classroom Teachers, Queen Alexandra Elementary School, Vancouver

At WildED, we are passionate about adventures. In schools we tell you about our adventures and often you tell us about yours. Please take some time to share one of your wilderness adventures in BC with us and other WildED students. Where did you go? Describe the place. Who did you go with? What happened? How long was your trip? Did you meet any BC species along the way?

Your favourite park!

BC has an amazing 828 provincial parks. Parks are in different biogeoclimatic zones, contain unique species, are geographically different and are special for different reasons. Please describe your favourite park area for the rest of us. Imagine that you are trying to convince us that we should go there. Why should we go visit your favourite park?
