Stewardship begins with a relationship to place. Strengthen your students' sense of place with regular visits to a local park or nearby shade trees.

Thank you to all the classes who participated in this year's Stewardship Stories contest. We are grateful to those who shared their stories with us and honoured to share them with you.

Check out the creative ways Surrey teachers are connecting their students with our urban forest.
