Outdoor Education

The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board operates four outdoor education centres: Warsaw near Peterborough County, Goodrich Loomis near Brighton, Wilmot Creek near Orono and the Laurie Lawson near Cobourg.

The Board has taken a leadership role in promoting environmental education, environmental safety and a positive environmental ethic. At these outdoor education centres, KPR students learn environmental stewardship and obtain hands-on experience in environmental studies.

The Outdoor Education program provides students and teachers with the opportunity for outdoor experiences that enrich the existing curriculum and support a positive environmental ethic. A qualified naturalist, in co-operation with the teacher, encourages hands-on exploration and discovery at each of KPR's Outdoor Education Centres.

Questions about the individual centres or programs can be directed to the appropriate Naturalist. Please use the links in the menu to the right.
