Class Descriptions


A Fishing Families Life in the Early 1900's (Grades 4-5)

Program approx. 2 hours

Great for grade 4-5 students, but adaptable for all grades.


Your students will enjoy this curriculum-related educational program. It’s an interactive and fun way to learn about fishing and farming life on Nova Scotia’s Eastern Shore.


Jeddory’s Go Fish Game is a new, fun, and interactive part of our school program. Students learn about the changes and growth of fishing in Nova Scotia. The program also includes an interactive house tour and guided grounds walk, all given by costumed interpreters. On the walk, children see the orchard, chickens, the barn, a well, and a wharf and visit the fish house. Demonstrations on how to make a mat or weave a net are included.

Hallowe’en on the Shore

Offered September 15–October 14

Come join our spooky guides as they wander our haunted grounds. Peek into the outhouse to see who's lurking there. Is that a real spider hanging from the rafters in the dairy? Enjoy a ghost story told in the gloomy upper bedroom.
