Calgary & Central Alberta Regional Heritage School Fair
Calgary & Central Alberta Regional Heritage School Fair
The Calgary & Central Alberta Regional Heritage School Fair is like a Science Fair but for Social Studies.
It is an opportunity for students from grades 4 through 9 to research, write, and present projects on a topic in Canada’s history, geography, culture, or heritage. These projects are initially shown in their schools and the best projects are chosen to present at the Calgary & Central Alberta Regional Heritage School Fair.
On the day of the fair, as a demonstration of learning, students exhibit and explain their projects to judges from the community. The judges score the projects and during the award ceremony, awards are handed out for the Best Project from each grade and the Hugh Dempsey Award for Best Overall Project. Historical themed awards are also handed out.
