Outdoor Education

 Are you a teacher looking to get your kids outside for some hands-on learning? Kinesthetic learners will love their time at Lutherwood. Public and private schools welcome for the day or for overnight adventures!

There are endless educational opportunities to be found at Lutherwood!

Bring your own curriculum or work with us to help you build it!

Some ideas to get you started:

Water Ecology - Students can learn about the water cycle and have the opportunity to explore our creeks for macro- invertebrates. We also have a Salmon Stream that students are able to observe!

Botany - Lutherwood has an abundance of flora and fauna such as skunk cabbage, stinging nettle, ferns, and horsetail that students can experience.

Geology - Students study the structure of the earth and different types of rock and then have the opportunity to go out on the trails and experience weathering, erosion and types of rock themselves.

Ecology - Students get to observe many animals (rabbits, birds, bald eagles) at Lutherwood and learn how they interact with each other and the environment.

Exploration - This is a time for students to experience the outdoors on their own, recording what they see, hear, smell, and feel.

Team Building - Students are given challenges that require them to work together to accomplish a task.

Can be added by request - Canoeing, Kayaking, Archery, Field Games and Campfire.

Our miles of hiking trails, waterfront access, large fields, and additional facilities help make your group feel like they can experience the outdoors with many of the comforts of home. We’d love to talk further about how Lutherwood can offer the perfect setting for your educational program.
