Field Trip to Coquitlam Watershed 


When? 
4S -Sep. 19 and 4V- Sep. 26 8:45-2:40

How? A special bus picks us up and takes us to the watershed.

Why? 
To explore watersheds and discover connections. The Coquitlam Watershed is a special place with unique treasures. It is a place where few people go, wildlife abounds, trees tower in mountains and valleys and water moves through natural landscapes to our water supply system. We plan to see the dam and learn how water gets from the reservoir to our tap. We plan to explore what makes watershed ecosystems important through fun, student-centered activities. We plan to make connections between healthy ecosystems and a healthy water supply. Once we’ve experienced the magic of this area, we will be reminded of our special day, every time we turn on the tap!

Each class can only take three adults so talk to your child's teacher if you are keen to go.
