Outdoor Learning Conference 2026

"Has the thought of taking a boisterous group of Kindergarten students—or a restless bunch of Grade 6s—outside made your palms a little clammy? Do the logistics of planning an outdoor lesson have you reaching for the Advil? Or maybe you’re hesitant to step away from your jam-packed curriculum to venture into the great outdoors?

Join Colleen for a fun, practical session that will show you just how simple—and rewarding—it can be to use the largest classroom of all: the outdoors. You’ll discover time-tested, easy-to-implement ideas that can transform even the most ordinary schoolyard into a space for meaningful learning and joyful exploration. Walk away with activities you can use Monday morning to get OUT of your rut and INTO an educational adventure!"
