Workshops

Just imagine yourself in a classroom that stretches from horizon to horizon, listening to the song of a meadow lark, smelling sage in the wind and watch a herd of bison graze in the distance....

The Prairie Learning Centre offers a number of workshops for highschool students. Teachers can book a program for their class. Program topics range from Prairie Ecology to Yoga to Prairie Art to Astronomy. Programs take place in Grasslands National Park and students have the opportunity to learn from Park Biologists, Wildlife Specialists and Park Wardens and Interpreters. 

Prairie Learning Centre Workshops are linked to the Grade 10-12 curriculum. All of our  workshops are designed to support and compliment various curricular outcomes. However, we encourage you to talk to the Program Manager about your needs.

 All students in Chinook School Division can participate in Prairie Learning Centre Programs for FREE! For participants outside of Chinook School Division, the fee is $10 per participant, per program.

Programs vary in length from 1.5 hours to 2 days - phone to customize your prairie learning experience! Looking for adventure? You can stay overnight in our traditional tipis!
