Our Grade Eight students visited the Natural History Museum of Nova Scotia during the first week of November to check out the exhibit on Ancient Egypt, one of the most ancient cultures in the world. With a focus on Egyptian mummies and eternal life, this exhibit has made the Natural History Museum its first stop in North America. The students enjoyed checking out all of the fascinating artifacts on display and of course, paid a visit to Gus, the museum's 98-year-old tortoise.
