Eco Quest - Self-Guided In Person Program
Go on a quest for nature knowledge! The Eco Quest takes your students through the Ecology Centre’s displays. Get interactive with our displays as you find the answers to the scavenger hunt questions and decode the secret message. Receive a small prize when you complete the Eco Quest booklet and then enjoy a nature video in our theatre.
This is a self-guided look at the Ecology Centre nature museum. There will be a short introduction on how to do the worksheet. We have a bin to store backpacks while the students are completing the activity. Food is not permitted inside the Ecology Centre.
Fill out our school booking form online to start the booking process. Please call 604-990-3755 or email ecocentre@dnv.org if you have any questions.
