Our #CMHinSchools featured artefact today is a sweater worn by a player on the Preston Rivulettes women's hockey team in 1937-1938. Thousands of fans paid to see women’s teams play hockey in the 1930s before the teams all but disappeared during the Second World War. 🏒@HCDSB

Thank you @sherrysaevil and Grandmother Cindilee for stopping by our learning commons to view our @CanMusHistory Box this morning and sharing information about various items with me. I learned so much! Miigwech. #CMHinSchools #IndigenousHistoryMonth @StGregoryHCDSB @HCDSB
Today's featured artefact from our @CanMusHistory box is a chatelaine, a sort of Victorian Era Swiss Army knife, with several small tools that women would use on a daily basis. Chatelaines were decorative yet functional, often containing a pouch to hold small items. #CMHInSchools
A ceinture fléchée, a colourful finger-woven sash, worn by French-Canadians & some Indigenous peoples since the early 1800s, was more than a piece of clothing - it was also used to help carry heavy loads, keep a coat fastened in the winter, or even bandage a wound. #CMHinSchools
Today's featured artefact is very dear to my heart: the prototype t-shirt for the iconic "Map of Canada" shirts Terry Fox often wore during the Marathon of Hope, in his quest to cross the country in support of cancer research. #CMHinSchools @StGregoryHCDSB @HCDSB @TerryFoxCanada
Can you guess what today's featured artefact is - or its purpose? Here's a hint: the item is carved out of walrus ivory, and was found in an early Inuit house on Baffin Island (Nunavut). #CMHinSchools #HistoryComesAlive @CanMusHistory #TheStGregoryWay @StGregoryHCDSB @HCDSB
Today's featured artefact from our #CMHinSchools History Box is a luggage tag from the 2000 @Olympics in Sydney, Australia, belonging to hurdler Perdita Felicien. A two-time Olympian, she represented Canada in the 100-metre hurdles at the Olympics in Sydney and Athens (2004). 🇨🇦
Today's featured History Box artefact is a reproduction of an astrolabe thought to have belonged to explorer Samuel de Champlain, who travelled up the Ottawa River in 1613. The device determined a user's location & the time of day based on the horizon, sun & stars. #CMHinSchools

Today's featured artefact from our Canadian History Box is an Ukrainian Easter Egg, known as a pysanka. A design is created in molten wax on the egg before dyes are applied. Pysanky have been part of Ukrainian 🇺🇦 culture for centuries. #CMHinSchools @CanMusHistory @StGregoryHCDSB
Today's featured artefact from our Canadian History Box is a remarkable ivory carving titled First Face. Found in the High Arctic, it is likely 3,600 to 3,900 years old, thus one of the oldest depictions of a human face in North America. #CMHinSchools @StGregoryHCDSB @HCDSB
