An important presentation for our High School
Today, our Grade 7-12 student had the opportunity to travel to the Jubilee Auditorium in Calgary for a special matinee performance of “Kaahsinnoniks (our ancestors)” presented by the Making Treaty 7 Cultural Society. Students were presented with a series of skits showing scenes from the history of the peoples involved in the creation of Treaty 7, the impacts of that treaty on those who were involved in it. This presentation ties directly into several social studies curricular outcomes and teachers will be referencing it in ongoing learning this year.
Nature Time in Grade 2
Grade 2 students enjoyed participating in “Nature Time” on Wednesday. This time focuses on being outside, noticing changes in our environment, appreciating where we live, having fun and exploring. Students played on the wood chip pile and in the leaves. They enjoyed making leaf piles, jumping in the leaves, making “leaf angels” and throwing leaves in the air.
