Regional Heritage Fairs in Ontario

Music, dance, drama, visual arts and computer techniques are combined with written and oral language as the students share their research projects with their peers and the public.  Heritage Fairs give students a meaningful reason to practice their literacy and research skills.  All students can succeed and improve their skill levels.  Awards raise self esteem in students with language skills and special needs by recognizing enthusiasm and dedication to history.
Parents, grandparents and community members all become involved as students seek out primary and secondary research and artifacts, props and costumes to complement their presentations.  Visits to museums, historic sites, libraries and archives become family affairs.  School Fairs and Regional Fairs are open to family and friends and community seniors, educators, business people take an active role in organizing, presenting heritage workshops and presentations, adjudicating student projects and sponsoring the public celebration of history and heritage.

Regional Fairs are held each year throughout Ontario
