Environmental Education

A retreat for upper elementary students to have hands-on activities in nature, and see God’s glory in His creation.

Environmental Education (EE) covers principles of religion, science, math, language and history. EE is also designed to enrich and enhance the current classroom curriculum through teaching in an outdoor classroom setting.

Classes include forestry, archaeology, limnology, meteorology, entomology, orienteering, and solar energy. We integrate the teachings of the Church, saint stories and Scripture study to enhance the knowledge of the students and open eyes to see how God is at work in our environment. Mass for the groups is celebrated upon request, and there is also an opportunity to experience the double zip line.
