The Cowichan Valley School District say their students are thrilled to be a part of the new land-based program that was introduced this semester.
Board Chair Candace Spilsbury says the program is a self-paced flexible class for students in Grades 10 to 12.
She says students have been involved in making a meal for a community group, canning, smoking fish, studying plants and activities at the Garry Oak Reserve, working with Cowichan Land Trust, Nature Trust and the Cowichan Estuary.
