Our Grade 5 classes had an enriching experience at Crawford Lake Conservation Area in Milton, delving into the traditions and lifestyle of the Iroquoian people.
Through visits to the Longhouse Village, exploration of Indigenous art and artifacts, and engaging interpretive programs, students gained a deeper understanding of Indigenous culture. This hands-on learning adventure perfectly complemented our Indigenous Peoples Unit of Inquiry, fostering empathy, respect, and appreciation for Indigenous perspectives.
To prepare future-ready individuals, we need to share and instill common values across our school community and embed these values in everything we do.
