At the National Music Centre, our school programs ignite curiosity and creativity through the power of music. Designed to align with Alberta’s K-12 curriculum, we make learning fun by connecting the world of sound to subjects like science, math, language arts, and more. Led by our talented musician educators, each school program features rare instruments from NMC’s one-of-a-kind collection. Teachers can choose the perfect experience to complement their classroom lessons.
Are you looking for an unforgettable field trip for your students? Well, Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre (NMC), is just the place to strike a chord in young learners.
Led by talented musician educators, NMC’s handson, ears-on, minds-on programs are based on Alberta’s K-12 curriculum and programs of study. Students can explore the museum and encounter fascinating items from the National Music Centre collection, watch demonstrations to see instruments come to life, and engage with interactive activities that will activate their musical awareness.
“We get such incredible feedback from the schools that visit us,” said Paige Foley, NMC’s Programs Manager. “This is where kids come to be inspired. Students often leave surprised by all the ways that music relates to subjects like math and science. Making learning fun is our ultimate goal!”
NMC has a range of new programs and activities that make all sorts of curriculum connections. That means you can select the perfect visit that aligns with your in-classroom teaching for the ultimate field trip experience.

Discover the fascinating Devil’s Coulee Dinosaur Museum and Devil’s Coulee Palaeontological Site in Warner, Alberta, where you can touch real fossils. Back in 1987, local teenager Wendy Sloboda made an extraordinary discovery while hiking along the Milk River Ridge – what she believed to be dinosaur eggshells.
This remarkable find caught the attention of renowned palaeontologist Dr. Phillip Currie from the Royal Tyrrell Museum, who confirmed its significance. Subsequent excavations led to the revelation of a hadrosaur, commonly known as a duckbill, dinosaur nesting site. Theropods (carnivorous dinosaurs) have also been found to be nesting near the different species of hadrosaurs. Dinosaur footprints, nests, skeletons, as well as the remains of turtles and clams, have all been found in Devil’s Coulee. Located just 45 minutes south of Lethbridge, our museum offers an immersive experience for visitors— see and touch the past. (You can even sniff it if you want, but it mostly smells like dried mud.)
Hear stories about World War II veteran Hope Johnson and her work bringing dinosaur discoveries to children, Wendy finding the first dinosaur footprint in the world with a skin impression (and how it got washed away in a flood), and how much weight a T-Rex could actually bench-press with its arms. You can look forward to guided tours of both the museum and the site, museum exploration, and hands on palaeontology.

Kuriakos Outdoor School provides exciting educational programming for all age groups. Throughout its 90 years, Kuriakos has valued belonging, growth, and togetherness; Outdoor School is a terrific opportunity for students to experience these values, in a setting that is different from their usual school routine. Students will be encouraged to learn and to challenge themselves, as they build new relationships and discover common experiences. You’ll be amazed at the difference an Outdoor School experience can make in your students!
We work closely with all our school groups to develop a program that suits each school’s needs. For Christian schools, many activities can also be facilitated to encourage growth in your students’ faith. Haven’t planned something like this before? We have! We are happy to assist with paperwork, parent communication, and other logistics.
Kuriakos is a camp and outdoor centre located at the north end of Sylvan Lake. Since 1930, Kuriakos has been a gathering place for communities from across the province, providing recreation and learning opportunities to hundreds of families.
We welcome you to our site, and invite you to become a part of our community.

“I was impressed with the regular communication from the Children’s Festival in preparing for our field trip. We knew exactly what to expect and where to find our performances/ workshops. The bus pick-up/drop off was so easy and efficient. I also loved the accessibility for one of my students who has high sensory needs. He was given safe spaces to move and still be part of our group. He was even able to access the “calming room” near the library when he was feeling really overstimulated. ”
Don’t forget to book time for engaging and creative paid activities:
• visual arts
• cultural exploration
• storytelling and literary art
Curriculum Connected Programming
• Indigenous views, culture and tradition
• and more!
Mark your calendar for the best field trip of the year!

Waterton Lakes National Park (WLNP) is an amazing place for students of all ages to discover, explore, and reconnect with the natural environment. Recently named the world’s first transnational International Dark Sky Park by the International Dark Sky Association, WLNP is quickly becoming a recognized astrotourism destination that draws people to discover the night sky, thanks to efforts that have been made to minimize the area’s light pollution footprint at night. Aside from being an International Dark Sky Park, WLNP has also been declared a Natural World Heritage Site by UNESCO, a World Biosphere Reserve through the UNESCO MAB program, the world’s first International Peace Park, and Canada’s fourth National Park.
A visit to Waterton Lakes National Park can be an enriching experience at any time of the year.
The tourism season runs from early May to early October, when full services are available. But considering the National Park is open year-round, there are plenty of opportunities to discover all that the area has to offer, even during the winter months. While some services are limited or unavailable during the winter, there are a number of businesses that cater to off-season travel to the National Park.
Dark Sky Guides (DSG) is a small family-owned business, operated by year-round residents of Waterton Lakes National Park. DSG historically offered guided interpretive nighttime tours and stargazing opportunities in WLNP, by providing tour participants with the chance to stargaze using quality telescopes, binoculars, and other stargazing equipment. The Dark Sky Guides are storytellers that deliver personable, memorable, interpretive tours that focus on showcasing the night sky, the moon and neighboring planets, deep sky objects like distant nebulae and star clusters, the Milky Way Galaxy, constellations, and even Aurora Borealis and nocturnal creatures. Ultimately, Dark Sky Guides encourage people, young and old, to foster their own personal connection with both the night sky and Waterton Lakes National Park. The company is committed to promoting WLNP as a noteworthy dark sky area, and to create awareness of the area’s official status as the World’s first transnational International Dark Sky Park.
Recently, DSG has expanded its operations to offer year-round experiences including wintertime snowshoe tours, as well as introducing the area’s only inflatable dome planetarium. As part of this shift to offering year-round experiences, DSG has recognized an opportunity to share the night sky with peoples of all ages. In particular, helping children and students to discover the night sky, and connect with the cosmos, has become a priority of DSG, considering the ever-increasing threat of artificial light at night, which is expanding around most urban municipalities.
The Waterton Planetarium features various full-dome film programs for viewers to discover the cosmos from the comfort of the inflatable dome planetarium, located in Waterton Lakes National Park’s old Falls Interpretive Theater, near Cameron Falls.
Dark Sky Guides President and Co-Founder, Keith Robinson, is a year-round resident of WLNP and has been a tour guide in the area for decades. He is available to help plan any visit to WLNP and can provide information about all services, amenities and experiences offered in the area, as well as offer additional contacts, to create the perfect itinerary (email: keith@darkskyguides.ca).
