Settler Savvy

Maximum 40 students
May - June

This is a TWO hour program and can be combined with a self-guided experience or our Inspiring Nature program to create a full-day experience.

How come pioneers always had simple machines? Because they knew better than to settle without them!

Discover Moreston Heritage Village through simple machines! Learn all the ways that settlers worked smarter, not harder, to get their work done. Through hands-on exploration students will work with simple machines to complete chores as a group or on their own. This program will focus on 1850s Grey County but include some younger machines from the 1880s and 1920s. Some activities are weather dependent.

The cost for the program is $5.00 +HST per student.
