Inquest at the 175

This educational program will introduce students to five industries located along the banks of the Saint-Charles and Lairet Rivers. With the help of Detective H. Carter, they will become amateur archaeologists, looking for clues and traces of the past in order to shed light on the mysteries of the world of industry and of occupations from the past. Students will take part in discovery games using compasses, science kits and artefacts. They will also listen to audio recordings featuring workers and artists talking about the conditions they had to work in.
