Superior North Catholic District School Board held their 3rd annual Indigenous Education Professional Development day for all staff at St. Edward Catholic
School in Nipigon on Friday, May 3rd.
Catholic Education Centre staff participating in KAIROS Blanket Exercise
SNCDSB was honoured to have community speakers, Elders and Knowledge Keepers come to our PD facilitate the KAIROS Blanket Exercise and speak about Land-based
Learning, Treaties, Mishomis (Grandfather Drum), Plants and Natural Medicines, Woodland Art, Métis - History Culture and Governance, An Introduction
to Pow Wows, Gichgiiwedin Games and Deepening Math through Indigenous Teachings.
Staff learning about Gichgiiwedin Games
These sessions are so important for our staff to have an understanding and appreciation of Indigenous history, culture and traditions so that they can
share this learning with students at SNCDSB and ensure that it is embedded into their daily practices.
