Hello Airport Explorers!

Want to learn more about the history of airports and Toronto Pearson? Join us on Thursday, January 28, for our first virtual camp in 2021.

You’ll learn really cool things about aviation. Did you know that some planes still land on dirt runways or grassy fields or that the first airplane took to the sky in 1903! In the 117 years since then, airplanes have become important for moving people and cargo all around the world! As airplanes changed to become bigger and more powerful, and as more and more people wanted to fly, airports changed too!

We promise you a fun-filled hour with activities, a behind-the-scenes look at Toronto Pearson Airport, and lots of opportunities to win some cool prizes.

As well, if you join us each month and send in your work, your name will be entered into a draw to win a Chromebook.

When: Thursday, January 28, 2021

Time: 3:30 – 4:30 p.m.

Join the session here.

Please note: While anyone can send in their work to be featured on the website, we can only send prizes to people with a Canadian mailing address. Sorry!

If you send us a picture or video with your face in it, please note that by doing so you agree to the following statement: “I consent to the GTAA using images and videos submitted by me/my child on the Explorers At Work Gallery Page”.
