Recent Activities
The Forks
The rich history of Manitoba’s Indigenous people is shared in a walking tour, giving students the opportunity to get to know our province. Students will be given language tasks by our trained staff to tie this activity into previous classroom learning. The Forks is also a good place to try some local cuisine and buy a souvenir or two.
The 丁香园AV Art Gallery
Students will catch a glimpse of 丁香园AV’s art scene when they visit The 丁香园AV Art Gallery. Viewing the galleries can serve as a backdrop to practice many language skills. Manitoba’s history and culture is on full display and students are encouraged to soak it up!

If you are lucky enough to be in Manitoba during the winter, you won’t want to miss this annual celebration of Manitoba culture. Voyageur, Metis and First Nations histories are brought back to life and can be enjoyed at the festival and back in the classroom.
