Time Travel with Archives and Museum

NOTE: Booking for the 2023-24 school year is now closed. Pre-booking for the 2024-25 school year will open in June. 

Transport students back in time! We offer three (3) student programs that are free of charge to the Edmonton School Division.

Grade 4
Students enter the 1881 Schoolhouse, where they experience schoolhouse lessons of the 1880s in Edmonton's first public school.

A hands-on experience involving activities and 'chores' based on those of the past, awaits students when they step into Grandma's Place: A Visit to Grandma's and Grandpa's in the Past.

Grade 6
Students can actively participate in Mr. Puffer Goes to Provincial Parliament: A Study of Government in Perspective, where they compare the first Provincial Parliament (1906) with the government in Alberta today.

If your school is not part of the Edmonton School Division, email archivesmuseum@epsb.ca or call 780-422-1970 for more information.
