Albion Hills: Environmental Leadership

Each year certain schools are invited to participate in the Outdoor Environmental Leaders of Tomorrow Program. This year my class visited Albion Hills learned about biodiversity and the importance of environmentalism.
Students learned survival skills in the forest by building shelters and building a fire to brew hot chocolate. They also studied green house gas emissions through fun activities. Finally, I am very proud to say that while students were on this 3 day trip, they achieved zero food waste -students left zero food uneaten. This was an extremely hard task, but the students embraced the challenge and won!
