Preparing for your school visit to the WDM during COVID-19
Following provincial government guidelines, the WDM will no longer require proof of vaccination for groups visiting the WDM after February 13. After March 1, masks are recommended, but not mandatory, for visitors. To continue protecting the health and safety of our visitors, WDM staff and volunteers will continue to wear masks in our Museums.
Full information on all WDM COVID-19 policies and procedures.

A treasure of Saskatchewan history awaits the over 20,000 students who visit a WDM annually as part of a school field trip. There’s no better way to teach Saskatchewan students than to use programs and resources with Saskatchewan inspired connections, links and examples.
