Education Programs
Education at the Museum of Ontario Archaeology puts history directly in the hands of your students. A school field trip to the museum brings the past to life through our unique and experiential programs. With access to almost two million artifacts and over a century of archaeological research, your students will enjoy a truly immersive learning environment while exploring over 13,000 years of human heritage in Ontario.
Our education programming is continuously been updated to better reflect the Ontario curriculum with specific focus on social studies, science and technology and mathematics. We provide many experiential and hands-on opportunities exploring archaeology and Ontario’s past. All of our programs are created to meet your curriculum needs and give you a selection of activities that will expand your classroom experience.
We are accepting on-site and virtual bookings for the 2023/2024 school year.

Activities are built around the Social Studies, Science and Technology, as well as Arts and Mathematics curriculums and focus on Ontario’s Indigenous history, historical thinking concepts, and how archaeology works. Weeks include a blend of simulated excavations, activities, traditional games, and a hike in the adjacent creek area.
