Trail Lessons Presented to Schools
No fewer than four elementary schools have schoolyards adjacent to the Kawartha Trans Canada Trail.
On August 28th, staff at three of these schools were presented with a set of ten lesson plans. These lessons, intended for grade 4-6 classes and linked to Ontario Ministry of Education curriculum expectations, were commissioned by one of our managing partners with funding from the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion.
