It’s hard to believe our very first Nature Club season is already coming to a close!

To celebrate an incredible few weeks of exploring, our young naturalists have something extra special planned for their final gathering: a trip out to the Cape Jourimain lighthouse aboard the Lighthouse Shuttle for an exclusive look inside!

Our interpretive team will be meeting the group to share the history of the light, stories of the point, and the unique coastal ecology that makes this landscape so special. Afterward, the club will walk the trail back together to reflect on how their eyes and ears have opened to the natural world since week one.

Families and caregivers are warmly invited to join in on the lighthouse visit and trail walk alongside the club.

We can’t wait to celebrate the final gathering of a wonderful first season!

THIS SATURDAY AT NATURE CLUB | CE SAMEDI AU CLUB NATURE

Our young naturalists are heading outside this Saturday at Cape Jourimain!

This week’s theme: What Do You Notice? No checklists, no specific animals to hunt down, and nowhere to rush. This week is all about slowing down, tuning in, and exploring with our senses:

•What do you see and hear?

•What do you feel and smell?

•What makes you wonder?

We’ll meet in the Interactive Room (just to your left inside the main entrance) at 10:30 a.m. to run through our club guidelines before hitting the trails. Afterward, we’ll regroup to share what everyone discovered!

Weather Watch: Nature Club runs rain or shine, a bit of mud or drizzle won’t stop us, so please dress for the weather! If severe conditions make it unsafe, we’ll email registered families and post an update by 8:00 a.m. Saturday.

We had another wonderful Nature Club session this past Saturday at Cape Jourimain!

This week’s theme was Birds. Guided by our fantastic volunteer Andrew, our young explorers took to the trails with binoculars in hand to see what feathered friends they could spot and hear along the coast.

Missed out? Don’t worry, we’re hosting another Nature Club meetup this Saturday!

If you’re new to the club, it’s a youth-led, adult-supported, community-driven space where kids can slow down, get curious, and connect with the wild world around them.

Spots are open for this weekend, check the link in our bio/comments for details and registration.

We hope to see you on the trails!

Nature Club is back on the trails this Saturday, and we’re turning our eyes (and ears!) to the skies.

This week’s lens: Birds!

We are thrilled to welcome our very first community volunteer and guest guide, Andrew. Bringing rich experience in natural history and seabird/waterfowl work with the Canadian Wildlife Service, Andrew will be joining us to help our young naturalists tune in to the birdlife of Cape Jourimain.

Whether we spot a flash of feathers in the canopy or catch a call drifting through the marsh, the morning isn’t about memorizing species names, it’s about slowing down, staying curious, and practicing the art of noticing together.

Session Details & Checklist:

When: Saturday | 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM (Drop-off just before 10:30 AM; pick-up at noon)

Where: Cape Jourimain Nature Centre

Wear: Trail-ready layers and sturdy footwear suited for the weather

Bring: A water bottle and your Nature Club journal (we’ll bring yours if you left it with us!)

See you on the trails Saturday morning!
