Schools on Tundra is a program of Schools on Board, an ArcticNet outreach program based out of the University of Manitoba, and is hosted at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre located in Churchill, MB. This unique outreach program will take a small group of high school students and teachers from across Canada to Churchill, MB to join scientists as they conduct research on climate change in northern terrestrial environments. Students and teachers will work with and learn from scientists through lectures and workshops as well as actively conducting field and lab work. Students will be exposed to a variety of research disciplines including wetland ecology, marine biology, transport systems and geology. Participants will also have the opportunity to view beluga whales in Hudson Bay and learn about history through a variety of Parks Canada programming. The remote wilderness setting, rich history of the region and northern culture create an exceptional setting for learning about Canada's magnificent Arctic!
