About Sierra Club Canada Foundation

Sierra Club Canada Foundation empowers people to protect, restore and enjoy a healthy and safe planet. SCCF’s objective is to protect and restore the health of the natural environment, including communities, by empowering Sierra Club members and its citizens through education and action.

Wild Child Forest School is a project of Sierra Club Canada Foundation that provides child led, play-based learning through repeated exposure to nature. At forest school we empower children to take the lead on their learning in a natural setting over time, which may mean getting wet, dirty, making stuff with tools, and learn to extend their limits in a thoughtful and intentional way.

⦁ Foster curiosity and excitement about nature

⦁ Maintain session notes and contributions to social media platforms

⦁ Communicate effectively with other educators

⦁ Maintain clean and organized gear

⦁ Create inclusive and supportive environments for kids on the autism spectrum and for queer/trans/gender creative children.
