We acknowledge that for thousands of years the Malahat, Lake Cowichan, Quw'utsun, Halalt, Penelakut, Stz'uminus, & Lyackson Peoples have walked gently on the unceded territories where we now live, work, learn, and play. We seek a new relationship - based in Truth & Reconciliation.
For our Cedar & Maple Pods - the structure, design, rhythms, and protocols of Q'shintul are full of rigour for their developing young brains.
For our Douglas Fir Pod, the structure, design, rhythms, and protocols of Q'shintul are fodder for their developing communication & collaboration competencies; thinking skills (critical, creative, reflective); growing agency/voice, and sense of social/community dynamics.
For our Arbutus, the structure, design, rhythms, and protocols of Q'shintul were found wanting after our second year. We are in the process of asking how to provide a rich ecosystem for these brilliant, developing minds.
Using the beautiful and robust B.C. Curriculum as our guide; the Village and Natural World as our rhythms; and body, mind, heart, and spirit as our structures - we are very excited to announce the development of Qwiqwul tst tse - “Let’s Talk” - designed with adolescent development in mind.
