I mentioned to students today that we will be going on a field trip to the Glenbow Museum on January 11 which is quite soon after the break. We are just finalizing all the forms now but thought we would put the bug in your ear early. In order to go on this trip we will need quite a few volunteers so please let me know if you would like to attend and if you have a police clearance on file already (unfortunately it's too short of a window to just begin the police check for this trip but we have 2 more later in the year as well). Due to the cost of busses and the maximum capacity already being met by just the students and teachers, we are asking for parent volunteers to drive themselves down to the museum and meet us there.
Our trip to the museum will be focussing on the program:
Our Community Our People: Who Built Calgary
(Social Studies)
Who were the individuals that helped build our first communities? Whose ideas led to the creation of our unique city? Based in the Mavericks gallery, this program allows students to explore with artifact handling and photographs and discover the pioneering men and women who first settled the West and began building our great city ... Calgary!
Students will also have the opportunity to explore other exhibits in the museum with a guide. Please email me at ljstewart@cbe.ab.ca if you are interested in volunteering for this trip. Thanks so much!!
