The Outdoor School
The Outdoor School is part of the Mount Saint Francis Center for
Spirituality. Located just fifteen minutes from downtown Louisville
in beautiful Floyds Knobs. Our purpose is to provide youth and
adults the opportunity to learn about the environment as well as
a wide variety of valuable team building skills such as cooperation,
leadership, self-confidence, communication and listening skills. All
of our programs are hands on and based upon discovery learning
principles that meet state academic standards.
Team Building Programs
Come and be learn how to work together in a small group in order
to overcome various challenges using our low ropes obstacle course.
Feeling the need for a little more excitement? Come and learn about
setting goals and increasing your self-confidence by taking part
in our High ropes program located thirty-five feet in the air!
Environmental Education Programs
Come and lean about all the exciting things in our woods such as
habitats, niches, adaptations, photosynthesis, etc. in our Forest
Ecology class. What's the difference between a reptile and an amphibian?
That's a very good question and through the use of a few of our amphibian
and reptile friends students will learn through hands on activities
such as holding a snake, (if they choose) about adaptations, food
webs, predator/prey, life stages, etc.
