Burns Bog School’s Out Summer: Presented by United Way
We’re excited to announce that we are collaborating with DIVERSEcity and United Way to run summer day camps for children of newcomers to Canada. In the month of July, each week-long camp will have a unique theme intending to educate kids about the local ecology in Delta, the sensitivity of peatland habitats, and the invasive species found in Burns Bog. Children in camps will partake in interactive educational activities on topics like ecological relationships and features of aquatic habitats tailored for their age group. We will provide a positive learning environment and enriching experience for newcomers to Canada through the Burns Bog Summer Day Camps.
