Heritage Fair National Showcase

The Heritage Fair National Showcase celebrates outstanding student work in the Heritage Fair program, aimed at fostering a deep appreciation for Canadian history and heritage among young learners. Students are selected at Regional Heritage Fairs and will be celebrated online and in print by Canada’s History Society. By highlighting diverse historical topics and encouraging rigorous research and inquiry, the National Showcase not only recognizes student achievements but also promotes a greater understanding of Canada's rich history and heritage.
