Inspire Your Students By Exploring Space

Are you a teacher looking for opportunities to get your students excited about science? Or perhaps you’re a homeschooling parent in search of engaging activities that complement what you’re teaching at home. 

We offer in-person field trips for grades 1, 4-7, and 9 and 10 that are based on the Ministry of Education’s curriculum and support the core competencies, essential learning and literacy foundations for each grade. A field trip to the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre is a perfect opportunity to get children out of their usual learning environment, spark their curiosity, and inspire them to explore science in the context of space.

The investment ranges from $9.75 to $19.75 per student, depending on the length of the trip. The minimum group size for field trips is 15 students, with a maximum of 30.
