Artistic storytelling connecting who we are to our natural world.

Creativity and imagination inspire the chances we take to build a generation that cares deeply about community and our natural world. It starts with me.

Grade 9s teach grade 5/6s how to measure the pH of dyes being made from local heartful foraging. @HinderYYC

Gr 5/6s then independently measure the pH from Nose Creek water collected on a wetlands-focused community walk.

Nature + Me: collective plant stories.

After 2 months of heartful harvesting, community walks + wonderments, students from 4-6 started to ask questions, research + build their plant stories to support relationship, respect + connection.

How many seeds in the pod of a hollyhock?

“Put them together- they’re a community!”

Happy International Day of the Girl! Conversations about why this day is recognized were animated and thought-provoking.

What is a patriarchy? What is a matriarchy? Is flipping the power structure going to solve problems?

S: “A circle would put no one in front or behind.”

[Liisha @HinderYYC]

Writing with heart in our ‘heart spots’ 🤍

“With you I feel safe.”

“You’ve provided me with a place to call home.”

“Your sun brought joy to our rooms. I see you want to stay if you are in the mood.”

“You make me feel like I am not alone in time when I don’t have anybody.”

[Liisha @HinderYYC]

Be sure to always speak + write from the heart.

Exploring authentic opportunities to understand + observe our natural world.

These love notes offer heart, gratitude, humility, connection + reverence. #cbeliteracy

A beautiful community walk this morning. What commitment will we each make to support connection and safe space — with each other, our community, and with the land?

💭”Today I learned about power and I have more power than I thought.”

Journal, brainstorm, discuss, reflect…empower.

The Big Question: What is my power? Grade 6/7s prepare for Open Minds.
