- Groups: Grades 4+
- Region: Virtual and Schoolwide
- Details & Apply
- Deadline: When full or February 14th
- Subjects: Social Studies
In this virtual program, students will be able to engage in real-time with one of our Heritage Interpreters in an interactive role-playing experience that strives to detail immigration to Canada at the start of the 20th Century.
Learners will build a character and answer questions asked by the “Immigration Officer” to try to get into Canada, all while learning about Canada’s exclusionary policies. These policies directly affected the lives of real people, determining who was allowed into the country and how they were treated. It is worth noting that some learners taking part in this program will be the direct descendants of these immigrants. As such, going through the experience will potentially impact different learners in different ways.
Special Note: This learning camp is interactive and relies on audience participation. Please mark this learning camp on your calendars. One week before, the coordinator will email you your child’s designated role for this learning camp. Their participation is integral to the success of this learning camp.

DIRECTIONS: We will meet at the first car park, close to Sovereign Lake Nordic Club. Turn left off Silver Star Road on Lake Road, towards Sovereign Lake Nordic Club. (Do not go all the way up to Silver Star downhill skiing area.) Before you get to the car park for the cross country skiing, there is a right turn on Aberdeen Summit Road. Park at the first car park and we will leave from there.

2022-2023 Virtual Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 - Simulation

2022-2023 Virtual Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 – Simulation
- Date: Friday, February 17, 2022
- Time: 10:00 - 11:00 am (PST)
- Groups: Grades 4+
- Region: Virtual and Schoolwide
- Details & Apply
- Deadline: When full or February 14th
- Subjects: Social Studies
In this virtual program, students will be able to engage in real-time with one of our Heritage Interpreters in an interactive role-playing experience that strives to detail immigration to Canada at the start of the 20th Century.
Learners will build a character and answer questions asked by the “Immigration Officer” to try to get into Canada, all while learning about Canada’s exclusionary policies. These policies directly affected the lives of real people, determining who was allowed into the country and how they were treated. It is worth noting that some learners taking part in this program will be the direct descendants of these immigrants. As such, going through the experience will potentially impact different learners in different ways.
Special Note: This learning camp is interactive and relies on audience participation. Please mark this learning camp on your calendars. One week before, the coordinator will email you your child’s designated role for this learning camp. Their participation is integral to the success of this learning camp.
