A program retreat is far more than just a break from the classroom—it’s an opportunity for students to step outside their usual routines and engage in meaningful connection, collaboration, and self-discovery. By creating a space where students can build trust, strengthen communication, and work together toward shared goals, our program retreat fosters the kind of teamwork that transforms individual effort into collective success. These experiences help students form lasting relationships, deepen their sense of belonging, and develop the interpersonal skills essential for both academic and personal growth. Ultimately, the program retreat lays the foundation for a more supportive, united, and motivated student community.
The Sustainability Studies Program historically gathers at Windy Pine, but has also ventured to Camp Kawartha and the Petroglyphs.
