Connect & Create: Field Trips
REUSE because you can't recycle the planet. At Resource Depot, we're all about teaching creative reuse!
We offer field trips to our facility and a class outreach service which can be differentiated for students from preschool to high school age and can be reserved by public or private schools, and youth organizations alike!
Our field trips and class outreach service have a focus on environmental conservation through upcycling, and include a hands-on and maker-oriented activity which promotes an aspect of individual design and creativity. Teachers can choose one of three different themes for their field trip or outreach service.

Booking Options for Field Trips
We have two field trip options based on group size. Both options include an onsite presentation of who we are, what we do and why it's important, a tour of our facility, and an extension activity related to the selected theme that teachers can take back to their classrooms.
For groups up to and including 15 students, teachers are provided with an activity lesson plan related to the selected theme prior to the visit, and students are permitted to fill a bin from our creative reuse section to gather materials for the hands-on activity back in the classroom.
For groups up to and including 20 students, students can complete a hands-on activity related to the theme at our site which includes all materials and tools.
Although we do not offer on-site field trips for groups larger than 20 students, we offer a self-directed off-site service which includes a detailed lesson plan, materials and instructions for the related hands-on activity, and the related extension activity for up to and including 30 students. Check out our Class Outreach for more information on this service!
