Education Kits
The teacher-led education kits created by the Huble Homestead/Giscome Portage Heritage Society have been revised and updated, and are now available to be borrowed through the School District 57 District Learning Commons!
These education kits have been edited by our staff to ensure that the research is up-to-date and that the content is relevant to BC's new curriculum goals. The kits incorporate interactive elements, such as games and storybooks, to help bring local history to life. They are also now available in French thanks to the generous support of the Kiwanis Club of Prince George and the Prince George Community Foundation!
