The CONNEX Project

This RockyDocs story features the students and teachers from Banded Peak School in Canada and Heiðarskóli in Iceland who are all part of the CONNEX exchange program, which stands for Community, Outdoor, Nature, Nurture, Education and eXchange. The project aims to reimagine the schools' connections with community and enhance their passion for the outdoors, by intentionally engaging seniors, fostering meaningful connections with the nearby Tsuut’ina Nation and opening the “Back 40” to community walks. Enjoy the experiences and perspectives of the participants as they host one another in their communities and the natural world.
