The activity I chose to post pictures of is from our 6th Grade Toronto Trip 2010. This annual trip to Toronto, Canada, takes place in the spring every school year after we study Canada in our social studies curriculum. Each team of teachers takes their students (around 60) and chaperones (around 15) over the border and through Canada for a 2-day non-stop adventure packed trip! The first picture shows the girls having too much fun on the bus.
This year we visite
d four destinations in Niagara; Niagara Falls, Niagara Glen Park, Ft. George, and Clifton Hill. Students had a ton of fun getting soaked on Niagara Falls as you can tell from the pictures. Niagara Falls is one of my favorite destinations in Canada. I love the natural beauty they offer. Prior to our trip we spend a lot of time talking about how the falls were created and how they have moved over time.
On the second day we ventured into Toronto to visit the CN Tower, ROM, Casa Loma, and the Eaton Centre. Everyone always loves traveling up the CN Tower - the 2nd largest tower in the world - and then overlooking the city. Casa Loma is a 100 year old castle built by Sir Henry Pellatt at the beginning of the 19th Century. Pellatt was one of the leading entrepreneurs in Canada during his time. His fame & fortune helped him build this historic site. It’s always fun to explore the secret passages, hidden tunnels, and climb to the top of the tower.
