Focus on Nature in Halton Region

Workshop Options for Your Classroom

We offer five workshop types in the Halton area. Each can be adapted to your students’ grade level and experience:

Elements of Design — Best for Grades 3–8
Principles of Design — Ideal as a follow-up or for Grades 7–11
Macro Photography — For students who have completed earlier workshops, or Grades 8–11
Indigenous Elements of Design — For Grades 3–11, featuring Indigenous photographers and perspectives
Light and Perspective - For Grades 9-11, tying science and nature together

Unless otherwise noted, bookings will default to the Elements of Design workshop.

If you’d like to see how these connect to Ontario’s curriculum and our extension activities, visit our Teacher Resources page.

What Local Teachers Are Saying

“The entire day was fantastic! The information was helpful and practical - showing examples from other students was inspiring. The time to explore and take photos was long enough so the kids could take as many photos as they wanted, building confidence and skill as they went, and not so long that they got tired of it. The second outside activity is great for classes who finish editing quickly, like mine. ”

-Sarah, Bruce T Lindley Public School
“Excellent. This is the second time I have done this and find it a very rich and worthwhile time. The products are stunning and the kids really love it and talk about it frequently”

- Angela, C.H. Norton Public School
“Love this program! We've participated in it for the last 3 years and we always really enjoy it. I like that it teaches kids the basics of photography and elements of design.”

-Tamika, Hawthorne Village Public School
