School Story in Action 2023-2024
April 5, 2024
Division 8 and 10 would like to share their collaborative, multi-media art project, connecting their understanding of the salmon life cycle with indigenous art. The art is based on Bill Ried’s Haida Sockeye Salmon and used with permission. Students learned the importance of local first nations culture and the connections to the life cycle of the salmon. Through story and the art, students explored indigenous art forms, such as shapes and textures to represent salmon and the river environment.
This links to our School Story focus in the following way:
Learning ultimately supports the well-being of the self, the family, the community, the land, the spirits, and the ancestors.
Learning is embedded in memory, history, and story.
(First Peoples Principles of Learning)
