YMCA Camp Elphinstone offers the best of the great outdoors

With 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

EXPERIENCES!

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.

Education

Lindell Beach, BC

Stillwood’s outdoor education comprises our Outdoor Program, our Team building program, and our Camp in a 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

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.

THE FRASER RIVER DISCOVERY CENTRE (FRDC)

is a not-for-profit interpretive centre whose mission is to bring together the many voices of the Fraser, to discover, celebrate, and inspire passionate stewards of the river. The FRDC has two floors of interactive exhibits and hosts education and public programs as well as special events. In 2020 the FRDC entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Musqueam Band with the intent to develop the Fraser River Discovery Centre as xwtatəlləm, a Place of Learning about the Indigenous heritage and teachings of the Fraser River. The FRDC is a perfect stop along the New Westminster boardwalk and a unique window into the past, present, and future of the mighty Fraser River!

CONNECT with Nature

From Langley to Bowen Island, Metro Vancouver’s regional parks habitats. Regional Parks has a team of staff ready to help you connect with nature. Adventures and discoveries await you in Metro Vancouver’s regional parks – no matter what your age or interest. Field trips, tours and workshops are a great way to get the most out of your park experience and create fun, lasting memories. Whether you choose towering forests, tranquil ponds or beautiful beaches, regional parks are fun and exciting classrooms. Our field trips provide hands-on, place-based education to heighten your students’ sensory awareness and increase their critical inquiry skills while exploring and having fun connecting to nature. Your students will experience the physical and mental health benefits of spending time in inspiring natural spaces.

Our programs reveal the natural world through exploration and discovery, and are offered year-round. If you can’t make it to a regional park in person, we also offer virtual field trips – same engaging professional park interpreters and hands-on learning – in an online setting (available seasonally).

For more information, visit metrovancouver.org (search “park field trips”).

DISCOVER CANADA’S LARGEST PORT

The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority’s school program helps students build awareness about the port, the role it plays, and how it connects to their everyday life.

The field trip experience offers memorable, interactive and fun learning for classes.

The program is specifically designed to support grade four to six students’ curriculum guidelines, as outlined by the British Columbia Ministry of Education.

Students will learn about Canada’s largest and most diversified port through activities that encourage:

• learning through doing, watching, hearing and reading

• reflection and inquiry

• thinking critically and creatively

• communicating through listening, actions, words and pictures

See what teachers have been saying about our program:

“The presentation was extremely well run: excellent pacing, interactive, informative, and very engaging.”

“I was so impressed with this program. Been teaching 25 years and I have to say it was one of the most organized, clearly laid out and interesting field trips I've been on.”

About the Vancouver International Children’s Festival

Ignite your students’ playful joy at the Vancouver International Children’s Festival! Enjoy spectacular shows from around the world for kids and families of all ages from May 29 to June 4. The 2023 Festival will offer a mix of In-person (on Granville Island) and Online performances featuring circus arts, puppetry, theatre, dance, music and lots of arts activities created just for children.

For over 45 years, the Festival has played host to the world’s most renowned performers from iconic Canadian chil dren’s singers Fred Penner and Charlotte Diamond to Quebec’s spectacular acrobatic Afrique en Cirque, and acts from as far away as Australia and Norway. It leads the way not only in theatre for very young audiences, but in First Nations art forms, whether it’s the Wild Moccasin Dance Sisters performing powwow forms or in hands-on Indige nous Art Workshops. There is also a strong component of French-language programming.

The Festival is constantly searching out new, different, and culturally diverse work that pushes the boundaries for young audiences—ranging all the way from six months to 13 years of age.

Don’t miss this beloved annual arts and culture event!

Benefits of the Performing Arts

Now more than ever, there is an incredible need to experience the joy of the arts.

By delivering new and diverse world-class live performances, the Festival opens a world of creative possibilities for your students. Through sharing all stories and learning empathy, kids can see hear, feel, think and imagine their potential and a better tomorrow.

The Festival is a great way to introduce your students to theatre, live music, circus and puppetry that’s created spe cifically for them all while establishing a lifelong love of the arts.

“I think everyone came out of the theatre with much to think about. For most in my class this was the first time they had ever seen live theatre. It is so much better than a movie. Thank you so much.” BC Educator

In-Person

Fun, Wonder and Whimsy INCLUDED! Your Show tickets include free wristbands to enter the Festival’s Activity Village where you and your students can get creatively playful at over 15 hands-on art stations!

Online

If you don’t live in Metro Vancouver, you can take part virtually through the Festival’s Online Shows. We are thrilled to offer Online shows to schools across BC. The Vancouver International Children’s Festival’s exceptional music, theatre, dance and storytelling are now accessible to all BC communities.

Now’s the time to plan your In-person or Virtual day at the Festival, the not-to-be-missed annual arts and culture event for School Groups!

After two years, we are excited to bring back youth events in-person with distinguished and multiple award-winning authors David A. Robertson, Kenneth Oppel, Ashley Spires, Sarah Ellis, Kevin Sylvester, S. K. Ali, Xiran Jay Zhao, Buffy-Sainte-Marie, Julie Flett, Heather Smith, and more!

In addition, the Writers Fest has curated Pro-D Day events specially for teachers with Omar El Akkad, Marsha Lederman, Elif Batuman, Douglas Stuart, Shelagh Rogers, and more.

Writers in the Classroom – our popular series of workshops that brings authors into classrooms – continues in-person and virtually with a fantastic lineup of 13 authors.

Join us for inquiry-based learning events and the chance to interact with renowned authors in a stimulating, community atmosphere that students love.

ALBERNI VALLEY MUSEUM

Hands - On - Heritage

The Alberni Valley Museum offers a variety of school programs for Kindergarten through Grade 12 classes. Interactive and engaging programs are offered at three sites: the Community Museum, McLean Mill National Historic Site and the Maritime Discovery Centre. Opportunities to discover Port Alberni and provincial history, from First Nations culture and pioneer experiences to forestry and maritime heritage, our programs address many of the prescribed learning outcomes of the Social Studies curriculum.

The McLean National Historic Site is a restored 1920s steam sawmill and lumber camp. Step back in time and discover the early days of BC’s logging and forestry industry and experience what mill camp life would have been like.

At the Maritime Discovery Centre visit a lighthouse and gallery. Located on the waterfront in the centre of our active deep sea port, exhibits focus on the history of lighthouses, navigation and exploration of the west coast, the 1964 Tsunami and the contemporary work of Neptune Canada.

The Alberni Valley Museum is a regional history museum utilizing a unique visible storage display system. Collections include First Nations art and culture, folk art, agriculture and modern history. Our Temporary Exhibits Gallery hosts new exhibits every year.

Programs and tours are available throughout the school year and can be combined to create a half- or full-day experience. All twelve of our core programs are presented by our experienced staff and volunteers and are linked to the BC Social Studies curriculum.

For more information, please contact the Museum’s Education Curator at 250-720-2523 and visit us at www.alberniheritage.com.

Courtenay and District Museum

The Courtenay and District Museum and Palaeontology Centre, located in downtown Courtenay, is B.C.’s premier marine fossil destination for students from around the province. With a mandate of natural and cultural history of the Comox Valley, the museum offers year-round fossil tours and programmes featuring 80-million-year-old marine fossils such as the Puntledge elasmosaur, mosasaurs and other ocean-dwelling vertebrates and invertebrates. Visits to the local rivers lead students to explore the past and understand Vancouver Island’s ancient history.

The 14,000-square-foot galleries also hold First Nations, settlement and changing exhibition galleries. The museum also has a well-stocked and busy gift shop with items for residents and guests from around the world. If you’re planning to stay for a few days, the museum also runs a 1,400-square-foot heritage home on seven acres with great accommodation rates.

Contact the museum at 250-334-0686 or info@courtenaymuseum.ca.
