Volunteers
We welcome volunteers in our program. We are mindful that a volunteer is devoting considerable time and energy to the program. To ensure that the experience is positive for the volunteer, and a good fit for the program, we have an interview and screening process for all potential volunteers. Please contact us if you are interested in becoming a volunteer at Terra Nova Nature School.
Practicum Students
Terra Nova Nature School strongly believes in creating learning opportunities for adult students in the field of Early Childhood Education. We are open to collaborating with post-secondary institutions regarding opportunities for observations and practica placements.
