Biographical history

The King George School Project was a collaborative project between the school and the University of Saskatchewan Archives. A mixed grade 4/5 class was given a presentation on photographs as evidence of the past, and on archives. They were then provided with disposable cameras and given the task of documenting their school, neighborhood and city for future generations.

Custodial history

Scope and content

The collection contains materials relating to the project, and in particular, images taken by the school children. These images document people admired and loved; pets; images of the city, neighborhoods, school and school grounds; and other materials which may well alter and change over time, including currency, various electronic apparatus including computers, cell phones, televisions, and stereos; modes of transportation, including cars and school buses. As such, the collection represents a good sample of materials which document Saskatoon at a specific time; and in particular documents the inner city area near King George school, and the school's teachers, students, and activities.
