Prescott House Museum and Blomidon Provincial Park

WHEN: June 13 or 14, 2014; 10 AM - 4 PM.
WHERE: 1633 Starr's Point Road Starr's Point, Nova Scotia.
COST: $2.55 per child.

Let's make a day of it.  Step back in time with us as we go to Prescott House and learn about a time gone by.  We will participate in a program which runs for approximately 3 hours. Upon arrival students will be divided into 3 groups, and will rotate through 3 different activities, lasting 30 minutes each. The activities include 1) house tour; 2) outdoor adventure; and 3) dried flower bookmarks. The remaining time can be allocated to playing Victorian games and/or a lunch break.
When we finish up at the museum we will head over to Blomidon Provincial Park to check out the great beach!

Practicalities:

Our inviting grounds and picnic areas will be where we enjoy lunch and/or snacks.
The program cost is $2.55 per child. Teachers and chaperones are free.
There is a small gift shop on site which includes inexpensive toys and souvenirs ($1.00-$2.00).
Please dress for the weather!

We do need to know numbers for the museum so I would ask that you let Maureen MacInnes know if you are coming or hoping to come!
