We Tell the Stories of East Hants
The East Hants Historical Society, established in 1967, is a volunteer, non-profit organization devoted to the promotion and preservation of history within East Hants, NS, Canada.
School Is In!—Upcoming Program
Last year, EHHS undertook a project, with federal funding under the Community Services Recovery Fund, to create a resource for researchers interested in East Hants history. Our primary concern was that students in East Hants schools did not have easy access to information about East Hants history. Therefore, we focused on Nova Scotia public school curriculum outcomes in choosing material to enter into this resource, a resource that would be available to teachers to enable them to add local content to their social studies, economics, political science, etc., programs. It would also be available to their students to provide information about East Hants history for school projects.
The result was the creation of a Google Hub, The East Hants Curriculum Connection: Support Material for Teachers, that teachers and their students can have access to simply by requesting access by email. As well, others with an interest in East Hants history can have access upon request.
Our September program will take you to that Google Hub and show you exactly what is there for you to use. We encourage teachers of upper elementary, middle school, and high school to come to the program to see what you can add to the content of your programs. If you are not a teacher, but know someone who would be interested, pass the information about the meeting along.
When: September 26, 7:30 pm
Where: Enfield District Elementary School, 29 Catherine St., Enfield
Presenters: Dr. John Grant, Pat Whidden
