Students and staff continue to find ways to deepen their knowledge and learn together about our shared history and build stronger relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada.

Later this month, our lovely Bridget will be leading us in the craft of making corn husk dolls and the Haudenosaunee legend about a doll that came to life to entertain children, but spent so much time admiring herself that she lost her face.

Corn husk dolls, a symbol of the harvest, originated in Indigenous cultures where corn was a staple crop. The husks were put to good use lighting lamps, filling pillows, and making baskets, masks, arrow quivers, ceremonial dolls and more.

We may not have been able to travel to Gould Lake this fall for their Outdoor Education program but, Nate Zahn, was able to bring the experiential outdoor learning to our backyard!

In the Gr. 4-8 Junior Food Web Program, students explored the roles of producers and consumers, the flow of energy within a food web and food pyramids.

The K-3 Primary program, Needs of All Living Things & Habitat Assessment, had students reflect on their own pets at home and their need for water, food, shelter, and space. Students were able to build an understanding of those same needs for wild animals like deer, fox, and beaver and then apply that knowledge through a Habitat Assessment of our school yard.
