At Nova's Ark, we are very lucky to have beautiful

At Nova's Ark, we are very lucky to have beautiful nature that surrounds us. Each day we honour, recognize and thank the Indigenous Community for allowing us to enjoy this land. We collaborated with our amazing staff, mentors, guests, families of Nova’s Ark, and the Durham College First Peoples Indigenous Centre to create our Nova's Ark Land Acknowledgement. Thank you so much to all.

As you travel into our forest, you can see our Land Acknowledgement displayed proudly. This has given us so many more opportunities to continue the conversations about the land we are on.

We are looking forward to sharing more stories, discoveries and experiences with all of those who come to visit us at Nova's Ark.
