A century ago, Canadian society consisted of various distinct classes: the wealthy upper class, the middle class, and the poorer labour class. Rules were observed and divisions between the classes were both subtle and obvious. Join the servants and masters of Annandale House for a tour and experience these differences first hand. Our program includes interactive activities, games and crafts that connect to the Ontario Curriculum and are grade appropriate.

One of the most impressive features of Annandale House is the hand-painted ceilings which feature elements from nature. Students will learn about stenciling as an expression of the Aesthetic Art Movement, and gain insight into the social, cultural and technological conditions of the late Victorian era. They'll also enjoy the hands-on experience of making their own stencils.
