What Teachers Are Saying

“
Grade 1 TeacherSt. Bonaventure School

“The students said it was awesome! It was engaging, covered the curricular topics, taught and showed things that I as a classroom teacher was not able to do myself. I felt the field trip cost was well worth it! Students learned a lot. It was action packed for the time. Very well done. I think this Inuit program is one of the best programs I've seen in a long time. (In-School program)”
