Abstract:

The Tallgrass Prairie Restoration Site is run by the Kenny family in Bailieboro, Ontario, located approximately twenty minutes outside of Peterborough. The site began in 1995, with the goal of restoring Tallgrass prairie to the area, and now is a twenty-acre portion of the Kenny family farm. A feasibility study was conducted to determine the feasibility of school field trips to the Restoration site. Ideas were also presented to include in the creation of a curriculum kit which could be used in conjunction with field trips to this site.

Abstract:

This report outlines the healthy living sections of Ontario's Health and physical education curriculum for grades nine through twelve. It also looks at Ontario's Safe School Act as a foundation for individual Boards to create safe learning environments for all students. The report also examines Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board's Equity and Diversity policy, Safe Schools Policy and the Selection of learning resources policy. The report concludes that OPIRG's proposed 'Queer Workshops" can be implemented in Peterborough high schools.
