Description :

Our full year Cedar Grove program is designed for the home school community within the Guelph and surrounding area.   If you attend a public or private school one of our trimester programs is likely a better fit but get in touch if you'd like to discuss.

Cedar Grove is full outdoor immersion throughout the year and changing seasons. The program delivers invisible learning and healthy development through responsive mentorship, sensory awareness games, bushcraft skills & self-sufficiency challenges, as well as timeless journeying among surrounding swamps, waterways, cedar groves, open fields, hardwood stands, and rocky outcroppings.  Key moments and discoveries are integrated into group learning and culture through well placed questions, pouring over field guides, sketching, stories, mapping, and repeat visits to best locations.

As with all Guelph Outdoor School programs, Cedar Grove balances the practical skills of self-sufficiency with the so-called 'soft skills' of careful listening and using best words, of co-operation, gratitude and sharing stories of the day.

Cedar Grove Full Year features opportunity for more long term projects and better reflects our commitment to sustained mentoring relationships. Professional facilitators have an increased opportunity to identify areas for growth and development for the individual and group. Our model seeks to foster the character attributes of resilient, capable, and service minded people.  Our daily work promotes Quiet Mind, Common Sense, Aliveness and Agility, Inquisitive Focus, Caring and Tending, Service to Community, Awe and Reverence, and Self-Sufficiency. The learning experience is dynamic, emergent, multi-sensory and exciting. The emphasis is on connection before facts, questions as much as answers, wonder as much as knowledge.
