She’s a little young, but you get the gist! (program open to Grade 9 students only)

Take Our Kids to Work is an annual, National program where Grade 9 students are hosted by parents, friends, relatives and volunteers at workplaces across the country, every November. The program supports career development by helping students connect school experiences to the workforce, and to their own futures.

Here at the AGO, your colleagues in Staff and Volunteer Resources  (SVR) are offering an interactive program for students to get to know the operations of the Gallery, better.

This program is open to all staff and volunteers. If you would like to bring a Grade 9 student (your own child, grandchild, niece or nephew, etc.) to work with you on November 4, please contact Brittany Reynolds in Staff and Volunteer Resources at 416 979 6660 ext. 273 or email [email protected]  by Wednesday, October 21.

We will provide a more detailed summary of the day’s events, including drop-off /pick up points and a confirmed schedule.  (The program typically runs for about a half-day, approximately 9am – 1pm).

Do you have any suggestions for activities or speaking points? What would your kids be interested in? Who would they like to hear from? Please share your thoughts with Brittany. We appreciate your ideas and feedback, and thank you for helping us make this day special for our grade nine students.
