Cabins and Meals

CABINS

Students sleep in cabins during their stay at Outdoor School. Each cabin has electricity, bunk beds and is heated. An adult group leader also stays in the cabin with the student. Students are responsible for their bunk area and keeping the cabins tidy... or not. There is also a designated 'cabin time' for students after lunch and supper. Students have the option of resting, catching up on assignments, chatting or enjoying the camp facilities.

The images below are of a typical cabin layout, and guests.

The cabins have heat and electricty. Students enjoy the cabin life. No cabin fever here. Cabins are located throughout the camp.
       

 

MEALS

Meals are served in the main lodge. Students sit in groups for meals. "Hoppers" are responsible for preparing tables, serving main dishes, cleaning tables and giving the "Zero Food Waste" report. Learning groups rotate as hoppers for meals.

Lunch was a salad bar, tomato soup, fruit and pudding. Family style meals promote good table conversation. Groups always know what their assignments are for the day. Posters are displayed around the lunch room with lyrics, clues and other information.
 

After Meals...

One goal of the Outdoor School experience is to attain "Zero Food Waste" following meals. the 'hoppers' clear the table and put the uneaten food from the plates in a container to be weighed. Remaining water/drinks are also counted as food waste. There was 8 ounces of food waste following this particular meal.

Another post meal activity is communicate with the students about what is happening on the schedule for the day.

The mystery clue is about to be revealed. Announcements are made at mealtime. Goals for Outdoor School Singing promotes camp unity.
