What They're Saying
“Although I was born and raised in Calgary, I learned more about our city in one day than in the rest of my life. The Grain Academy was very entertaining and informative. It was interesting to learn about the grain we grow here in our province and watch the model train travel from Calgary to Vancouver, which is the largest port of its kind in the world. The video about the “Way it Was” also gave us a better appreciation for how easy our work is today in comparison. The Union Cemetery tour was an interactive way to learn more about those who established our city and also gave the students a chance to share what they learned in their research. The students were able to learn and teach each other in an enjoyable setting. It was a fun and action packed day!”
