Papineau

Location: Papineauville, Quebec

Who says that science does not mix with art? Papineau’s WCE are the pros of interdisciplinary learning! Students amaze us with new artistic perspectives about species that inhabit wetlands. In addition, students develop their communicative skills by preparing and delivering workshops about wetlands to grade 7 high school students.

Students from Louis-Joseph Papineau High School go on a wetland field trip to Plaisance National Park on the Ottawa River. This site is a beautiful biodiversity hotspot, with an area of ​​28 km2 where more than 500 species of flora have been inventoried!
