"I like Bodwell very much because I get to meet people from many countries and learn about their cultures, join a lot of sport activities and gain friendship from staff. They are very good people and become friends to each child and they have lots of patience with us. " (Eduardo Madrigal, Mexico, Participant for 3 years)

UBC & UVic Program
 

Discover Nature - Experience the Stunning, Natural Beauty of the Pacific Coast

Bodwell's UBC & UVIC Summer Programs in Vancouver & Victoria

"We are here as Bodwell students
Together we embrace the world
We’ll keep warm thoughts in our hearts
For goals attained and joy unfurled…"

The west coast of Canada is rich with the beauty of nature, which excites and gratifies Bodwell's inquisitive students. Students are able to actively learn as they travel and explore alongside Bodwell's experienced teachers and counselors. In addition to the aquarium, the suspension bridge and ecological learning centers, students visit the salmon hatchery, and natural habitats of plants and animals in the parks, forests, shorelines, and lakes in the Vancouver area and on the many discovery trips around Victoria. Students will learn and understand the importance of sustainability and the different ways to effectively protect the environment.
