Climbing Wall

Watch students “climb to new heights” as they challenge themselves on our multi-pitch climbing wall. Located indoors, this class is offered year-round with one-on-one instruction from our trained and experienced staff members. Climbers of all levels, from beginner to advanced, will enjoy the thrill of the climb.

Join in the fun and use bright, vivid colors to create your own masterpiece t-shirt! Our experienced staff will guide the students through a series of twists and turns that, in the end, will produce uniquely tie-dyed t-shirts. Complete with our Heartland Outdoor School Logo, the shirts come preshrunk and are available in adult sizes S-XXL. Additional charge of $6.00 per student.
DiversiTree
Trees are an important resource all around us. They are easily overlooked and taken for granted. In this class, students will investigate the importance of trees in our lives and the ecosystem. They will study the tree diversity in Heartland’s woodlot and draw conclusions about the biodiversity based on their observations, results, and past experiences.
High Quality H2O
The stream study class gives students a better understanding of how to conduct an investigation within a stream ecosystem. Through the use of the appropriate tools and hands-on exploration, the students will discover the importance of water quality and the water quality status of Alum Creek along with the many organisms living within it.
