Experience type: 
In-Person
Program Description

Students self-navigate Playland in order to answer questions about the park’s operations. Questions are designed to get students thinking about the business aspect of running an amusement park and the factors that need to be considered when establishing its procedures and policies. In 2024, the program will run along side our Amusement Park Science Program. https://www.pne.ca/playland/schools/
