What's New?

  • The Grade Two Buoyancy and Boats field trip is now a 1.75 hour field trip, allowing a bit more time for exploring the properties of buoyancy, and for building the paddle boats!
  • Our prices did not change last year, but the 2011-2012 field trip prices have been adjusted due to the increase in the cost of delivering the field trips. 
  • Due to rising fuel costs, a travel fee will be charged to all schools outside Edmonton City limits.
  • All bookings of the Awesome Bridges program must be in a ground floor room.  If your school has indoor or outdoor stairs and no elevator or ramp, we are unable to deliver the program at your school -- no exceptions.
  • A $50.00 (+GST) cancellation fee will be charged for all field trips canceled with less than 15 business days' notice.
