Grand Forks Geography Fair

"On February 12, 2010, CHEK Grand Forks held its first Geography Fair at Selkirk College.  Students chose specific areas or regions, researched them and shared their newly acquired knowledge through display boards, innovative posters, crafts and relevant items.  Attendees to our fair were encouraged to roam from country to country asking questions, finding answers and receiving a stamp for their passport, given to each person upon entry to the Fair.  Travels included the Netherlands, Canada (Northwest Territories), Italy, Switzerland, Madagascar, Africa and Mexico.  Each group then shared a short oral presentation with a question period. What a wonderful way to explore the world, bringing it closer to each of us!"
