Have a Field Day on Mount Royal!
Treat your students to a field trip that makes the grade! From September to June, Les amis de la montagne offers educational and recreational activities on Mount Royal designed for schools and groups of children looking to enjoy the great outdoors in an urban setting.Winter on the mountain is extra special as groups learn about natural habitats with our experienced educators or enjoy the park’s gorgeous backdrop on their own as they skate, snow tube, snowshoe or cross-country ski.
Combining learning and outdoor activities makes for an unforgettable day in the forest and on the hill!
An Effective Way to Integrate Knowledge
Mount Royal provides fertile ground for learning thanks to Les amis de la montagne! Our school programs provide a hands-on learning experience in nature based on educational objectives specified by the Quebec Education Program.As they explore the mountain with experienced educators, children discover its biodiversity, geology and history through adventure, exploration and games. Students learn about the environment and consumption, community life and citizenship, health and well-being. Our programs have been designed so that themes can be explored in the classroom, awakening kids to the importance of acting responsibly for the preservation of the environment.
