What does Wanuskewin mean to you?


Our final unit in Grade 9 Social Studies will focus on the Aboriginal Society. We will start our unit with a trip out to Wanuskewin Heritage park. The tour will be lead by Cort Dogniez, the Treaty Catalyst officer for SPSD. Mr. Dogniez is a teacher who is passionate about Aboriginal history, culture and education. He is also able to provide a unique Christian perspective of Aboriginal issues so we are excited to have him joining our class this week.
He will be in our class on Wed. June 1st for discussions, prep and any questions you may have about the subject. Please come to class prepared to ask questions, engage in discussion and participate in a productive learning experience.

Reminder: Permission forms must be in by Wed., June 1st.
