A huge thank you to SET-BC for providing Royal Bay Secondary with the opportunity to participate in the 2018-2019 Place-Based Synergy Project.

With the support of SET-BC, we will be given the opportunity to utilize film making technologies, in a Foods 11/12 class, to provide curricular access and meaningfully include all students in our classroom environment.

Food In Our Backyard

Royal Bay Secondary is in its fourth year, build in the old gravel pit, and overlooking the Esquimalt Lagoon. We have over 1200 students grades 9-12. Our physical location makes this project so exciting as we are on the traditional territory of the Esquimalt Nation, in a booming urban landscape, and on the border of the vast farm lands of Metchosin; the perfect location for looking at food sustainability, local food sources and innovative ways of growing food in urban areas.

Goals: Embrace the journey and the learning by our team and our students throughout the project.

We are most excited about the “ah-ha moments” along the way.
