Aboriginal Games Presentation

On November 15th, we learned some Aboriginal Games presented by 2 ladies from The Oak Hammock Marsh Interpretive Centre. Thanks to the Swan Lake Conservation District, who helped pay for the Ecovan visit to our school, we learned some new Aboriginal games. 

In these games we learned different skills the Aboriginal peoples would use while hunting and canoeing. We learned the importance of listening, observing as well as balance and agility. 


We had a lot of fun while learning.
