“Take it Outside: Beyond Classroom Walls”
In the midst of the Covid pandemic, four students experience the magic of spending more time outside at their inner city public elementary school in Gatineau, Quebec.
TAKE IT OUTSIDE is a documentary with intimate access to four students through the 2021-22 school year – a unique year teaching us important lessons about how education can adapt to children’s evolving needs. As they navigate their personal challenges, it becomes clear that the more time they spend outside at school – be it during recess, an outdoor math game, a skateboard lesson or a field trip – the better prepared they are to handle what life throws at them.
Please join us for the screening of the one-hour documentary film with the filmmaker and school principal. There will be time during the session to answer any questions about the filming of the
documentary and the implementation of an outdoor education program at school.
