b'At nine stations in the school field and community, students participated in many activities, including drumming, the history of the land their school sits on, and building community through sharing food around a fire. Station facilitators modelled ways for teachers to use outdoor space to continue land-based learning at their school. To this end, the team held a land-based learning development session for phys-ed teachers on March 15, 2024. Teachers returned to school communities with activities and resources anchored in Indigenous games and histories, recognizing the interdependence between people and place. In the years to come, we aim to create a divisional land-based learning event for Grades 5 and 6, continue to offer full-school events for middle-years students, and offer additional training for high school outdoor education teachers,said Jordana. Our Indigenous Education team has led, and continues to lead, countless professional development opportunities, school events, and educational opportunities centered around land-based learning. -Sean Oliver, an IndigenousEducation Teacher in LRSD The above is but a small summary of the great work our dedicated team is doing at LRSD to help reconnect students with the land.43'
