...and the results are in!

  This Spring, over 3,800 students throughout the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, took the Get Into Nature! Challenge with WildED.

WildED participants got active, had fun, were intellectually stimulated, and reconnected to nature and parks in their local communities by experiencing them first-hand. Every class at every school that experienced a free WildED program was signed on as a Challenge participant.

WildED kept a running tally of results and the Top Honour goes to:

ECOLE JULES QUESNEL ELEMENTARY

in Vancouver for being the most involved and active school with the highest number of participating students!

Ecole Jules Quesnel students from grade 4 through to 7 experienced a combination of WildED in-school programs, outdoor activities, and nature hikes.

They got outside and explored Mount Seymour Provincial Park, Capilano River Regional Park, and Pacific Spirit Regional Park. These were definitely some of our most exciting and well-received programs this year. But don't just take our word for it, read what students at Ecole Jules Quesnel had to say about it on our blog.

Where students like Bianca, "one of the most like girliest people in (her) entire grade" discovers that she "could actually hike and actually like it". We knew you had it in you all along Bianca!
