We are pleased to announce that The Coho Society has partnered with our school to promote the understanding of the wetlands and learning in nature.  This project will last for three years and we expect it will touch the learning of every child in the school.

 The Coho Society will be providing funds and resources, which includes:

·         A Scientist in Residence – who will assist the teachers to teach the children about the life cycle in our wetlands;
·         Establishing a new library collection called: Learning in Nature;
·         Assisting with the “Learning in Nature” event day at our school.

We will be showcasing this partnership at the Coho Festival.

Please join us on Tuesday, September 5^th from 9-10am when our PJPAC hosts a ‘Welcome Back’ coffee and refreshments in our Learning Commons and garden.

We look forward to seeing everyone back on September 5th!
