Wild Alberta - Parks in the Classroom

Is your classroom already a little wild? Stuck inside for another indoor recess? No bus? No problem! When escaping to nature isn’t an option, we bring the wild to you!    

Wild Alberta offers an unforgettable hands-on experience with real animal artifacts, activities, and interactive storytelling. What variety of life is found across Alberta’s natural regions? How does human activity impact biological diversity? Students will explore these questions and get an up-close experience handling artifacts as they discover unique animal adaptations, the interconnectedness of ecosystems, wildlife safety, and the role Parks play in protecting Alberta’s natural history. Explore the incredible wildlife of Alberta right from your school - no field trip forms required! Whether it's one class or multiple, we’ve got you covered!
