Discovering Youth Leadership
Educational Field Trips
The Envirothon Challenge
We are the ideal location in Temiskaming for a day trip to explore culture, nature and recreation. Itineraries for day trips are a threefold adventure: one-third environmental education, one-third recreation to reinforce the value of team playing and the fun of active living, and one-third relaxation - after all, the students have worked so hard all year, they deserve to relax a little and take in the scenery.
Day trips are organized by our staff and led by retired school teachers. Contact us to find out more information on how you can organize a field trip for your students.
The Elk Lake Eco Centre staff has dedicated themselves to help promote and develop youth leadership programs, for students coming from all around Ontario. We are honored to work with groups of potential youth leaders, while creating a friendly, enjoyable environment that results in voluntarily active and persistent participation!
We provide each and every youth the essential tools to succeed and grow as an individual, as well as a team member. The program is put together to help these young learners achieve better results in school, to gain more self-confidence, to enhance their time management and to help them set achievable goals.
Elk lake Eco Centre is a proud partner of the Ontario Envirothon - an opportunity to reward students for learning about their natural surroundings. The challenge proactively encourages interactive studies in order for students to develop critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork and communication skills. With the help of field trips and workshops, the goal is to develop and improve student understanding in regards to all of the things we value in nature.
But the Envirothon is more than a competition that tests your team’s environmental smarts. A lot of what’s fun and interesting about joining an Envirothon team is the camaraderie and friendship while learning, exploring and preparing for the big day. Learn more about the Envirothon Challenge today.
