Our Trips

Discovering Delta

How does the geography and ecology of Delta affect its development? Learn how a delta is formed through a live water table demonstration, explore Delta’s four ecosystems through a hands-on activity and complete a thematic TRAIL scavenger hunt.

Delta Then and Now Education Kit

Using archival evidence, students will explore how Delta has changed over time to meet the needs and wants of the community. This interdisciplinary kit incorporates math and literacy skills into an exploration of life now and in the past and the changes that have shaped our community and environment.

Education Kits provide your students the opportunity to explore primary source materials in the classroom. Our kits include a teacher’s manual, lesson plans, student activity sheets, archival documents and artifacts, and program materials.

Uncovering Delta's Chinatown Education Kit

What can the story of Delta’s Chinatown reveal about enduring issues in Canadian history? Using archaeological and archival evidence from Delta’s Chinatown, students will explore the legacy of Canada’s policies and treatment of Chinese immigrants.
