YMCA Camp Elphinstone offers the best of the great outdoors

W

ith fresh air, open skies and a diverse ecosystem, the Pacific Northwest is an ideal environment for exploration and discovery. That’s why the YMCA transforms their summer overnight camp, YMCA Camp Elphinstone, to an outdoor learning haven for children and youth during the school year.

Located on the beautiful Sunshine Coast of B.C., two kilometres north of the Langdale ferry terminal and just a 40-minute ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver, YMCA Camp Elphinstone boasts more than 140 acres of oceanfront property, lush rainforest and quiet creeks. It’s no wonder they’ve been providing unique outdoor experiences to kids since 1907.

Their outdoor education programs are designed to get kids active and learning outside. Through meaningful, experiential learning, YMCA staff facilitate a wide variety of hands-on activities and students are challenged outside the traditional classroom. Programming is carefully planned to provide quality learning opportunities and is designed to meet provincial prescribed learning outcomes.

Y staff work with educators to ensure that programming is developmentally appropriate and schedules are planned to achieve group goals. Some examples of the most popular types of programming, favoured by educators, include: marine beach study, discovery hike or voyageur canoeing. And of course, kids can’t get enough of their climbing wall, archery

ranges, and camp fires!

Y staff are also able to play a hands-off role should educators wish to take the lead in facilitating learning experiences (certain activities require Y staff due to safety). The Y boasts an impressive staff team, with highly trained leaders, with expertise in areas such as wildlife safety and healthy child development.

YMCA Camp Elphinstone is able to accommodate up to 450 participants and offers two types of accommodation – lodges and cabins – all of which offer electricity and heat. Lodges feature private washrooms, cozy lounges, mini kitchenettes and lockers to secure belongings. Cabins have washrooms and showers nearby in a separate building.

The Y makes sure kids are full with healthy and nutritious meals during their stay, serving appetizing, kid-friendly meals served family or buffet style. Participants can expect meals such as pancakes or scrambled eggs and hash browns for breakfast, macaroni and cheese or tacos for lunch, and chicken and potatoes or stir-fry for dinner. Meals also include endless salad bars at lunch and dinner or cereal and fruit bars at breakfast. They are able to accommodate most dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, lactose or gluten intolerant, diabetic and celiac at no additional cost. Single meals are available for day-use only groups.

Prices range depending on the type of accommodation and time of year – low season rates are offered November through April. Since the YMCA is a charity, they also offer financial assistance made possible through fundraising efforts in the community, to ensure that all kids get a chance to experience learning in the great outdoors. They also have a slew of recommendations on ways for groups to fundraise their trip.

Spaces book quickly, so inquire early to secure dates and get a customized quote. To learn more, contact 604-886-2025, elphinstone@gv.ymca.ca or visit their website (gv.ymca.ca/outdoor-education).

a pioneer student

You step through the doors of the Lochiel Schoolhouse and you are instantly transported to a simpler time. Under the stern guidance of the 1920's Schoolmarm, you are taken through a lesson designed to illustrate a day in the life of a pioneer student. Your teacher will insist on obedience, proper manners, and hard work.

This experience is just one of the many programs that are offered by the Langley Centennial Museum. A diversity of learning options - at the museum, in the community, or in your classrooms - is available for all ages, curriculum objectives, and budgets.

With over 30 programs that focus on history, art, and science, the most difficult aspect of booking a program will be choosing which one. museum.tol.ca/learn

A fun, educational, field trip for all ages!

We offer outdoor, Team building or Camp In A Day Programs!

Stillwood Camp and Conference Centre has run overnight summer camps and retreats for many years, which have brought joy, community, and a full camp experience to many people over the years.

Back in 2015, it was decided that an important aspect was missing from the camp programs: Outdoor Education. Stillwood enlisted Dr. Tracey Dobb’s help to bring this new vision to fruition. Tracey, with her passion for the outdoors and the next generation, began building a program which would help youth to learn about the outdoor world beyond that of the technological world that seems to grip society. Her dream, incoordination with Stillwood, was to see a passion and love for the outdoors come alive in kids.

Bringing a knowledge of how important nature is to life.

Outdoor skills have been forgotten, and the beauty of creation shadowed by the busy lives kids lead these days. Between school, extra-curricular activities, sports, and social media, there is no time for wonder anymore.

But Stillwood believes that a longing still lives within our youth, and that it just takes one spark to ignite it once again.

Outdoor Education

Lindell Beach, BC Stillwood’s outdoor education comprises our Outdoor Program, our Team-building program, and our Camp-ina-day program. Our hands-on, outdoor educational programs will give unique learning experiences and opportunities for growth with your students. We would love the chance to teach them the beauty of nature and important wilderness skills at our fully functional retreat centre.

Besides our education programs, we have full service accommodations, catering, and many activities such as high-ropes, a climbing tower, archery, and more. We strive to help your class have the most valuable and impactful experience possible, while encountering the great outdoors.

Our programs contain a variety of modules that can be custom-tailored to meet your class needs. We would be delighted to have you come up for a tour, and to give you some further information. If you’re interested, or would simply like to know more, we are just an email away at outdoored@stillwood.ca

Join Burns Bog Conservation Society guides on a journey through the Delta Nature Reserve.

Raised boardwalks meander through the changing environment, offering space for learning while respecting nature.

Uncover the history of Burns Bog, from its formation and Indigenous resource uses, to recent threats. Come see why it is called the “Lungs of the Lower Mainland”!

Through inquiry and discussion, students learn about the main characteristics of a bog, and where the infamous sunken tractor really came from.

Guides demonstrate how to distinguish between native and invasive plants. Students also learn about endangered species, as well as the unique adaptations Bog organisms need to survive.

Field Trips are aligned with the K-12 curriculum and can be customized to meet the needs of your class.

COASTAL CLIMBING CENTRE Coastal prides itself in offering the most affordable climbing field trips in the Lower Mainland. These sessions are led from start to finish by our qualified instructors, who take care of all the technical aspects of the sport, enabling the students to experience a safely managed and enjoyable climbing experience.

For teachers who would prefer that their students become more involved in the technical aspects of climbing, we also offer multi-session group instruction packages.

Over the course of three or more sessions, your students will learn how to use the equipment correctly, communicate by using the proper commands, tie knots appropriate to climbing, and belay each other safely.

Education @ MOA: Teaching and Learning

with the Museum of Anthropology at UBC

A

t the Museum of Anthropology at UBC, we’ve been working alongside teachers since our inception. We recognize the immense value that educators have in our communities, and we’re happy to continue supporting teachers across the province during these unprecedented times.

MOA offers a wealth of digital resources for educators, students, and the public at large.

MOA is a place of world arts and cultures where you will find a diversity of objects and materials in our care—much of which is available online. For instance, did you know MOA houses one of the largest collections of late-19th and early-20th century Cantonese opera costumes? We also hold pieces like Ghost Net sculptures, made by Indigenous artists from Erub Island, Australia, which embody stories of environmental stewardship and sustainability.

You’ll find highlights of unique works such as these on our website. You can also access almost all of MOA’s collection virtually too; our online catalogue—MOA CAT—is an excellent resource for information regarding the nearly 50,000 objects that the museum houses. Teachers can find images of cultural belongings and objects to enrich their lessons, and students can use the MOA CAT to conduct primary source object research. Our online teacher resources offer a variety of free online exhibitions, lesson plans, and resources—for educators, caregivers, and students alike.

In order to help us all adapt to the “new normal,” MOA has also developed a suite of digital school programs to continue serving teachers and students who can’t visit the museum in-person. Live virtual programs are available for elementary classes, supported by pre- and post-program activities and resources that offer Indigenous perspectives and opportunities for inquiry. Delivered by knowledgeable facilitators, these live virtual programs connect students with Indigenous belongings in MOA’s teaching collection and the rich stories they hold.

For secondary classes, free downloadable learning resources have been adapted from existing museum programs. These flexible resources include activities, slide presentations, media, and discussion prompts— designed for teachers to use with students in the classroom or with those learning remotely. Check out moa.ubc.ca/school-programs/ for more information about these new digital offerings.

MOA is also committed to continuing education through professional development opportunities for teachers by connecting to community knowledge holders and artists. Together, we can develop programs to learn from Indigenous knowledge holders and discuss ways to integrate this knowledge into the BC curriculum. Working with artists from a range of backgrounds and offering online events is also a possibility.

We welcome ideas from teachers for how we can continue to offer support through safe, enriching professional development experiences. For more information, contact Dr. Jill Baird, MOA Curator of Education at jill.baird@ubc.ca. moa.ubc.ca/school-programs/

The Pacific Museum of Earth is Vancouver’s premier Earth Science museum. Located in UBC’s Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, we provide an educational window into a wide range of topics including atmospheric science, oceanography, geology, environmental sciences, geological engineering, and planetary science. Our interdisciplinary nature places us in a powerful position to engage, excite, and educate students (and teachers!) about fundamental science and its linkages to topics of environmental, economic, and societal importance.

Educating the Next Generation of Ocean Champions We provide comprehensive education programs that promote conservation by connecting students, teachers and communities to the ocean.

Mobile Education We bring the Aquarium to you! Mobile Programs offers engaging and entertaining programming for your students, campers or festival-goers. Our skilled team of educators aims to inspire curiosity and caring for all aquatic habitats by sharing some of their knowledge and passion about our oceans with you.

Curriculum Programs Join us on-site at the Vancouver Aquarium where students create personal connections with marine life and diverse ecosystems all while developing an appreciation for protecting ocean health.

Virtual AquaClass Students will join one of our expert educators through a live 30-45 minute long video conference in an inquiry-based discussion about ocean topics.

Available in French upon request.

Evening Programs Choose one of five unique programs to explore hands-on, inquiry based activities, experiments and exploration.

Get behind-the-scenes to better understand Aquarium operations, and dive into topics like climate change, resource extraction, pollution and habitat destruction while fully engaging your senses, mind and wonder.

In Victoria, Discover the Past has been a leader for quality tours and activities for over twenty years. Their popular programs will continue (subject to COVID-19 protocols) throughout the year for groups of ten or fewer. Multiple guides will allow larger groups to be divided.

Live, interactive programs on ZOOM or other platforms will bring Victoria’s Chinatown, Old Town and other heritage places into classrooms. Call (250) 384-6698 or email john@discoverthepast.com

“

Our intention at the garden is to provide both a basic introduction to the natural and cultural history of Clayoquot Sound, as well as a place where the relationship between culture and nature can be explored. Tofino Botanical Gardens is a 12 acre site, bordered on the South by an 80 acre forest reserve. Our shoreline looks onto 5,000 acres of protected migratory shorebird habitat. This unique location provides Tofino Botanical Gardens with an enormous opportunity to provide access to education and research about the temperate coastal rainforest ecosystem.

U’MISTA CULTURAL CENTRE

U’mista’s Potlatch Collection tells an epic story of resistance and resilience. The Centre opened in 1980 to house repatriated Kwakwaka’wakw ceremonial regalia that had been seized by government authorities in 1922. One of the most complete and important collections of its type in the world, U’mista’s Potlatch Collection is a source of great joy and pride for the Kwakwaka’wakw community.

Our range of field trips provide grade-specific programming with personal experiences that allow your students to interact with the content and our staff in order to enhance learning.

Packages are customizable and include Q&A with science interpreters, pre and post online resources, hands-on workshops, science demonstrations, live space/science planetarium star theatre shows and, for traditional field trips, time in the cosmic courtyard exhibit space.

a pioneer student

You step through the doors of the Lochiel Schoolhouse and you are instantly transported to a simpler time. Under the stern guidance of the 1920's Schoolmarm, you are taken through a lesson designed to illustrate a day in the life of a pioneer student. Your teacher will insist on obedience, proper manners, and hard work.

This experience is just one of the many programs that are offered by the Langley Centennial Museum. A diversity of learning options - at the museum, in the community, or in your classrooms - is available for all ages, curriculum objectives, and budgets.

With over 30 programs that focus on history, art, and science, the most difficult aspect of booking a program will be choosing which one. museum.tol.ca/learn
