School Field Trips in Saskatoon

Real World Experiences. Integrated Learning.


At Alerces we believe strongly in experience as education with valuable life lessons occurring in our natural environment all around us everyday. We incorporate those experiences into teachable moments through field trips with the help of parents in our community.

The Benefits of Field Trips

Field trips are a wonderful educational opportunity for children to step outside of the classroom and experience real life scenarios within our community. We believe in creating a community rooted in multi-generational learning where children share the lessons they have experienced throughout the day with their family.


Past Alerces Field Trips

Field Trip Fire Station.JPG

A field trip to the fire hall! A popular favourite for preschool and kindergarten children as they get to experience the thrill of climbing into the large truck, trying on protective gear, holding the water hose and letting their imaginations soar to exciting rescue missions where they are the hero that saves the day.

Listed below are many examples of field trips we have taken with the children during an academic year. Each year is unique, but some excursions we take every year.
