Environmental Education
Environmental education and conservation are integrated throughout much of The Willow School’s curriculum. Thematic units enable children to explore their natural surroundings, learn about ecological concepts and foster an appreciation of the natural world. As part of our experiential program, day hikes, kayak trips, exploration of our beaches, rivers and woodlands and three day camping trips play an integral role. We believe that some of the most pressing issues of this century will involve our care for the earth, as we learn to balance environmental protection and economic health with human needs.
