A Fun-filled Fall at Wildwood Nature School

Wildwood Nature School had a busy fall season this year. We extended our session from four to six weeks for maximum forest fun! Our smallest Nature School participants are our Falcons and Fledglings who had fun exploring the stream, dressing up for Halloween, running around like squirrels in the fall, and learning about local animals and what they do during the winter. On our final day together, we made a yummy snack by the fire and hand-fed the chickadees together.

Our older Nature School group is the Eagles. They spend some more time playing and learning new skills in the Spruce Grove and throughout Wildwood Conservation Area. This season, we made natural dye and built bridges out of logs! On their last day, they made Bannock over the fire and had their badge ceremony to congratulate everyone on this fall session!

We will be running Wildwood Nature School again in the spring of 2025. For more information, please visit the Nature School web page.
