Manitoba Nature Education Program

The Nature Conservancy of Canada’s (NCC's) Manitoba Region is proud to offer programs that are:

•    Unique nature-based interactive programs;
•    Available year-round across southern Manitoba; and
•    Linked to Manitoba science and social studies curriculum.

Programs may be tailored to meet the needs of individual classes and students. While in-school programs are free of charge, groups are responsible for their own transportation if they wish to participate in field-trip options.

Interactive presentations

NCC staff would love to visit your classroom to present on a variety of topics. We also love to pair our classroom presentations with a hand’s-on, nature-based activity!

Elementary school special topics:  
•    Manitoba’s butterflies
•    Bird buddies
•    Bugs

Middle and high school special topics:
•    Invasive species
•    Species at risk
•    Biodiversity

Topics for all ages:  
•    Build your own nature trails
•    Winter weather survivors

Outdoor experiences

Take a walk with NCC staff to learn about biodiversity and nature conservation on a nearby nature trail, green space or your own schoolyard.
