School Programs

These curriculum-based school programs provide students and teachers with hands-on opportunities to learn about Alberta’s natural resources through inquiry and exploration.

Important Changes for 2017-18:

The Sam Livingston Fish Hatchery will be closed to the public during the 2017-18 school year for much-needed upgrades to its infrastructure.

Programs that have entered the Fish Hatchery in previous years have been adapted to provide alternative learning experiences that support existing programs and Alberta Education’s Program of Study.
