The LUNA Project's environmental education program is designed to promote environmental stewardship and to complement classroom curriculum. Our alternative education techniques will provide students with in depth, hands-on experiences in Nature & Science and Outdoor Adventure and Leadership fields. All of our programs include a brief sustainable living tour and are delivered out of our new, completely off-grid, classroom Yurt.
After an introduction to the steps we have taken to lower our own "ecological footprint", students will put alternative energy sources to the test through a variety of exciting, hands-on experiments. In addition, students will have the opportunity to calculate their own personal ecological footprints, and become more aware of steps they can take towards positive environmental change.

Nature and Science Program Options
We have designed many curriculum linked programs to help students make direct hands on connection with material. Each of our enthusiastic environmental educators will work with a small group of students in order to minimize our impact on the land and maximize one on one teaching that occurs. Programs can also be custom built to meet specific needs of individual classes.

With our highly trained and qualified wilderness guides and environmental educators; we've developed a series of canoe tripping packages to develop skills and confidence within the student starting as early as grade 5, and continuing through to grade 12. We work with each individual student developing teamwork, confidence and wilderness skills from season to season, helping to light the spark of environmental awerness and teamwork early in the students life. Each package is tailored to your classes needs, however outlines and itineraries are availble for you to review with your class.
