School & Youth Programs

Whether you have a busy class of grade 1 students, a small environmental club, a grade 12 biology class, a group of university students, or a family event, the CEC’s overnight and day educational programs are individually tailored to meet the needs and interests of your group.  Let the Canadian Ecology Centre help you take the learning and fun outside with one of our exciting field trips offered in both French and English!

THE SETTING

The CEC is nestled in the heart of Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park, surrounded by a mix of Boreal and Carolinian forests. Just steps away from the Mattawa River, an important route during the fur trade, the area has a rich and interesting past. This serene and natural setting is the ideal location for outdoor and environmental education, and the perfect setting for your next field trip!

THE PROGRAMS

Each of our programs are designed with the CEC’s 5 E’s in mind: we strive to ensure they are all EDUCATIONAL, ECOLOGICAL, ENTERTAINING, EXPERIENTIAL and EXCITING.

All of our educational programs can be linked to the Ontario curriculum from Kindergarten to Grade 12, and are adapted to suit all ages and abilities.
