Ontario Science Centre

Arriving at the end of our journey!

Our journey to the city of Toronto finishes at The Ontario Science Centre. It is a family oriented attraction with quite a lot of interesting exhibits to entertain children. It was designed by the architect Raymond Moriyama and this modern building was completed in 1969.

Visitors to the centre can see the latest developments in technology, telecommunications, optics, biology, physics, space travel and meteorology  presented in an imaginative way. Visitors have to participate with many interactive displays.

At the end of the session, you will have:

  • visited The Ontario Science Centre in Toronto.
  • listened to a conversation about cool things you can do in Montréal.
  • reflected on all the different tasks you have worked on at the Learning Diary.

Visit the Ontario Science centre's official website and take a look at all the different sections it has.
