UTRCA Bringing Nature School Experience to PA Day 

The Upper Thames River Conservation Authority (UTRCA) is running a Nature School PA Day on Friday, May 2 at Wildwood Conservation Area.  

UTRCA staff have partnered with the Stratford Perth Museum to create an entire day of outdoor fun for students aged 6 to ten years old. 

The day will be hosted at the Spruce Grove nature school site, an outdoor immersive teaching space that allows kids to explore, create and play together! Activities will include guided hikes, wildflower art, butter churning and stream exploration.  

"We can't wait to host students at Wildwood Conservation Area and through collaborating with the Stratford Perth Museum we've been able to plan lots of fun activities for participants," said Matthew Marchioni, Community Education Technician.  

The programming runs on Friday May 2nd, 2025 from 9:30am to 3:30 pm with extended care available.
