Wildwood Outdoor Education Centre (St. Marys)

Join us from September to June at Wildwood Conservation Area (St. Marys). Through exploration, active games, and other guided activities, our educators will inspire your students to explore, inquire, and discover. All of our environmental education programs meet the requirements for the Ontario Curriculum. Please note that our teaching flexibility allows for some program modifications.

Programming dates are limited. Please email Caroline Biel, Community Education Specialist for more information.

Program Length and Group Size

Our programs are 1.5 hours in length and we typically run programs in the morning from 10:00 to 11:30 am, and in the afternoon from 12:00 to 1:30 pm. However, we are flexible based on busing needs and bell times. If you choose to combine two programs to create a full-day experience, we will secure a space for you to eat lunch.

Our group sizes are determined by staffing, safety, equipment, and other logistical considerations:

  • At Wildwood Outdoor Education Centre – most programs can accommodate two or three classes
  • In the Classroom: one class
  • Off-site Programs: one class
  • Certifications: one class
  • Stewardship: two classes
