Mary-Ann (one of the parents) has arranged a field trip for Pioneer Holiday Traditions at Delta Museum on Wednesday November 18 at 1pm. Here is a description of the program:
 
Where did Christmas traditions come from? Children will explore the Museum galleries bedecked with seasonal trimmings, learn the origins of Christmas traditions and create old fashioned hand-crafted decorations to take home.
 
The program is 90 minutes. The Delta Museum is located in the heart of Ladner Village. If you are interested in this field trip please send an email to Shannon and she will forward the information to Mary-Ann. If you need a ride or have space to offer a ride, please indicate in your message.
 
Thanks
 
Mary-Ann

    The Pioneer Holiday Traditions should be about $3.50 depending on how many children we get.
