SEEC

Description of Program:

The Saturna Ecological Education Center (SEEC) is an experiential place-based year of ecological learning  on beautiful Saturna Island, British Columbia. Within the Gulf Islands School District (SD64),  SEEC follows the BC curriculum and students earn full credits for provincially approved courses in Grades 10 and 11.

At SEEC, students immerse themselves in the natural world to learn, understand, and act in ways which are environmentally sustainable while being challenged academically. Our explorations integrate science, social studies, physical education, and language arts to create a unique learning adventure that promotes critical thinking, social responsibility,  and personal growth.

SEEC is an overnight based program where high school students stay three nights a week.  The site has  three cabins, a cookhouse, and separate washrooms for boys and girls.

Applying to SEEC is as easy as 1,2,3.
