Museum of Anthropology

Dear Parents and Students,

We had a fabulous day at the Museum of Anthropology.  The children reinforced their knowledge about Potlatches and got to hold and learn about special ceremonial regalia doing presentations about them and sketched carvings and learned about the different realms.  They enjoyed exploring the whole museum, discovering beautiful and interesting artifacts held in deep drawers and looking at ancient totem poles and magnificent mask and canoe carvings, traditional clothing, blankets, jewelry, sculptures, dishes, statues etc. not just from the aboriginals in Canada, but from every continent in the world.  What a day!  We thank our parent volunteers for accompanying us that day and for all your support making this field trip happen.  Here are some photos we would like to share!
