Earth Heads spring break camp
Earth Heads is based on experiential learning. Classes cover a range of topics that help children explore, become more connected, and gain knowledge about the ecology of Vancouver and surrounding areas. There are many ecosystems to explore in our urban areas, from marshland, streams, and ponds to forests and shorelines. The classes are designed to give children an insight into their environment, giving them real-life context to help them understand how the world works and how they fit into it.
