We know $17,500/year (autism funding accepted) is a meaningful investment
KOLA isn’t a day camp. It’s a small-group, high-support outdoor learning academy designed to nurture whole, growing humans in a complex world.
We support DL and homeschool families across BC and are working to be vendor approved from other providers.
