With Julie Ditta

Let out your inner drummer! We start with meditation and then let the drumming take us on a creative, energizing, music-making journey that is never the same twice.  You don’t need to know how to drum or have previous musical experience to be part of this unique circle. We embrace the flow of free form drumming. Members of the circle make this a one of a kind musical experience by sharing a variety of drums and rhythm instruments.

Kids who spend time in nature are happier, healthier and smarter

It’s back-to-school time — time to get back outside!

Help kids explore the outdoors while teaching them about environmental responsibility. Join the David Suzuki Foundation’s Back to School Superhero Challenge.

  • You and your family and/or classroom will receive a superhero-themed activity each week for four weeks (starting September 21).
  • Each activity teaches kids about pressing environmental issues and connects them to the great outdoors.
  • Activities are adapted from the David Suzuki Foundation’s Connecting With Nature educational guides.
  • You’ll be entered to win an autographed children’s book by David Suzuki and a beautiful Herschel hemp backpack. Classrooms can win a collection of autographed David Suzuki children’s books.

Research shows that children who spend time outside are healthier, happier and smarter. We also know that people who feel connected to nature are more likely to care about protecting it.

So let’s get kids outside and save the world!

Sincerely,

Harpreet Johal
Fellow Back to School Superhero
