ECO-Challenge
E – Experience – learn new skills and facts
C – Co-operate - work as a team
O – Observe - notice the local environment
The Eco Challenge is an annual experiential learning event hosted by the Harvest Moon Society and held in conjunction with the Harvest Moon Festival.
Each year, the Harvest Moon Society invites grade 7 and 8 students and their teachers from the surrounding school divisions as well as the homeschool community to participate in a series of workshops based on science curriculum.
Workshops are hosted by volunteer experts who share information, stories, and ideas to help the students build an understanding about the topics.
Past events have included workshop topics such as:
Climate Change
Food Miles
Soils
Forest Management
Surveying and GPS
Pollinators
Seed starting
Water systems
Hiking the Lessons from the Land Trail
The Eco-Challenge is an important part of the annual calendar at the Harvest Moon Society, and each year we look forward to welcoming students and their teachers to Clearwater for this fun and exciting day of learning.
