Burnaby Heritage Village Field Trip

We had a great trip on Tuesday to Heritage Village.  It was a very Christmas-y day with a light snowfall sporadically throughout the trip.

Students enjoyed the many buildings from the 1920’s.  They learned a great deal about life in Burnaby during this era.

Some highlights included visits to: the blacksmith; the tram (the first ‘Skytrain’ only on ground level – the Interurban); the original Seaforth Schoolhouse (with the schoolmarm and her strict rules about manners and decorum); a log cabin; a Chinese apothecary; the Burnaby Post printing shop; a traditional house; the vintage Carousel; and the farmhouse.
