Journeys Outreach Kits

Thanks to a THEN/HiER Small Projects grant, the National Nikkei Museum & Heritage Centre is now able to rent out curriculum-based elementary and secondary teaching kits to enhance the classroom exploration of Japanese Canadian history.

The kits are designed to enhance the Internment and Redress teacher guides. Each kit is packed with copies of artifacts, films, a wooden model of an internment house and a comprehensive teaching guide with background and activities. We have three copies of each kind of kit. Educators rent them for $40 + GST for three weeks at a time and are also responsible for arranging transportation.

Any questions regarding this project can be directed to the Education Coordinator by email, learning@nikkeiplace.org.
