Blue Schools Canada serves as the Canadian node within the All-Atlantic Blue Schools Network (AA-BSN), a global initiative launched in 2021 that connects schools located in countries along the Atlantic Ocean. This program is designed to involve students in enriching learning experiences that enhance their understanding of the global ocean and freshwater ecosystems, raise awareness about ocean-climate issues, and involve local community initiatives that inspire action.
About Blue Schools Canada
All schools, from coast to coast to coast, and inland are eligible to be a Blue School. Individual teachers and their classes can join or entire schools.
COLC, together with our partner team, coordinates the Blue Schools Canada program, supporting schools – public and private, as well as alternative education programs (e.g., homeschooling, Forest Schools) across Canada.
Benefits of Joining
Blue Schools Canada engages classrooms in local community efforts and global conversations that inspire action to ensure a healthy ocean and all waterways leading to it. Students, educators, school leaders, and community members, become part of a community of practice, both in Canada and globally, with access to live events, intercultural opportunities, latest resources, and a diverse team of ocean and freshwater specialists.
