Indigenous Tuition Commitment
Our programming is land-based and this land is indigenous land. As a way to recognize past and present systems that create barriers to access, Indigenous people are welcome to attend Wildhearts day school programs free of charge, if desired. We are committed to co-creating a space with indigenous communities that feels safe, and committed to reciprocity and reconciliation. Please contact us for enrolment details.
Work Exchange/Barter System
Wildhearts is willing and able to offer creative options for work trade, bartering and other payments in non-financial capital. We would love to consider skills and services that would support our programming and accessibility for all. We look forward to accepting your proposal. Please get in touch if you have any questions.
Used Gear Depot/ Lending Library
Getting suited up for the outdoors, particularly for each season, is expensive. One of the often neglected pieces of the inclusion and equity equation in the outdoors is a hard look at economic access. We are constantly building up our gear depot/lending library for outdoor clothing and gear in hopes of overcoming this obstacle. If your child needs anything, please check with us first. If your child has outgrown something we would gratefully accept!
Forest School for all bursaries and sliding scale options
We are looking at ways to create options for families to decrease and eliminate barriers to access related to socioeconomic status. We rely on community support and fundraising efforts to create full and partially funded spaces. Please reach out if you would like to learn more.
