The Butchart Gardens Discovery Walk

Offered by and last updated on September 21, 2009.

Description

The Butchart Gardens is rich in history and we invite your students to share in the amazing vision of the Butchart Family. Discovery Walk worksheets guide your students through four key areas; The Sunken Garden, The Totems, The Japanese Garden and The Italian Garden. The evolution from a limestone quarry to a beautiful garden has spanned over 100 years and we continue to grow and develop. Our goal is to enhance and compliment your educational requirements as laid out in BC’s curriculum guide.
