Romeo and Juliet

Luckily, I managed to book space for our grade eights to visit Stratford Festival in June of 2008. Just a few short days after Education was able to access the new offerings, there was very little to choose from. I was also able to book space for the fall of 2008 for our current grade sevens to visit. It is an awesome day of learning for this age group. They usually love Romeo and Juliet at this age too.

Recently, our grade eights also visited Dundurn Castle in Hamilton. It is exactly right for an understanding of upper class life pre-Confederation, Confederation and post. What an amazing Canadian castle!
