School Trips

Bring your class to one of Toronto History Museums’ sites and take part in a unique educational experience that supports the Ontario Education Curriculum. The wide range of program offerings appeal to students from Kindergarten to Grade 12, as well as English as a Second Language (ESL) learners.

Students connect with people of earlier times by getting up close and personal with artifacts, diaries and letters. Through guided tours and hands-on activities, experienced educators use learner-centred and inquiry-based teaching methods to engage students.
