Lather Up - Haliburton-Muskoka-Kawartha Children’s Water Festival

A selection of the Learning Activity Centres listed below are made accessible to students attending our annual Fall Festival and families participating in our Community Programs. Selecting one by name will take you to a descriptive page from which a ‘Facilitator’s Guide’ may be downloaded for most.

We have included relevant learning expectations from the Ontario curriculum for most of those we use at the Fall Festival. These lists of learning expectations are not exhaustive but are taken from the Science and Technology (2007), Social Studies (2013) and Health and Physical Education (2010) documents. By providing some of these learning expectations we intend to assist teachers in identifying activities which best suit their grade level and program.

Health and Physical Education links may not be included specifically for each activity centre however, the HMK Children’s Water Festival encompasses health and physical education by nature.  The Fall Festival is spread out over a large natural area, requiring students to walk between each activity centre, some being a distance away from each other.  Additionally, the activity centres themselves often involve some sort of physical activity to engage children.  This being said, movement is a major theme at the HMK Children’s Water Festival, relating to the Ontario Health and Physical Education Curriculum.

Thanks for your patience while we are updating the lists below!
