History Squad delivers webinars and virtual workshops to students in Canada, Great Britain and USA as well as hands-on workshops in the Saskatoon area.  For over 25 years, we have partnered with schools, homeschool groups and others to bring history to life for students of all ages and abilities.

Our workshops and presentations are delivered by History Squad founder Kevin Hicks, who has an uncanny knack for teaching history in a fun, fascinating and relevant way.  Instead of simply learning about people in history, Kevin transports students to a historical era by embodying a character from that time.  Through dynamic storytelling, unique artifacts and hands-on learning, students engage with history in a whole new way.
