Keeping with Tradition

Minimum of 15, maximum of 42 students plus teachers and 1 parent helper per 6 students
Available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays this December.

There are a world of winter traditions and ways to celebrate! This program will specifically look at Christmas and some of the traditions celebrated here in Grey County.

Grey Roots invites you to explore our history by visiting two of our Moreston Heritage Village buildings to learn about past Grey County Christmases. Buildings are subject to availability, but could include the Log Cabin (1853), Log House (1886), Farmhouse (1925), and General Store (1925). Students will end the program creating a craft to take home.

Make Grey Roots a new tradition for your class! This program is only offered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays this December.

This program is $5 plus HST per student. Teachers and school support staff are complimentary. One helpful adult volunteer is also complimentary for every six students (1:6). 

Looking for something in a different month? Consider Cooking by the Calendar (year-round, expect December) or Doing the Chores (April-June).
