Grade 4 TeacherAscension of the Lord School

“I love this field trip (and have used it for years). I know what to expect and the students are engaged in each station. (In-School program)”

“
Grade 4 TeacherProvost Public School

“The virtual in-school field trip included a lot of great and useful information! The students were extremely excited about it and really enjoyed it. The presenter was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and positive which kept the students engaged throughout. The presenter was also very inclusive in getting individual students to come and share their answers. The body breaks that were done after going through each region was a wrap up of the region as well as a way for students to stand up and move a bit! (Video Conference program)”

“
Nina, Grade 4 TeacherSt. Sylvester School
