SCHOOL PROGRAMS
Our school programs provide an interactive, cultural learning experience that helps students understand Indigenous history and traditions in an engaging, hands-on way.
What We Offer
Our in-classroom visits are tailored to grade level curriculum outcomes for K-12 students and include age-appropriate cultural stories, discussion topics around reconciliation, and learning a few Mi’kmaq words.
Why Choose First Nations Storytellers?
Curriculum Integration: Programs designed to complement and enrich educational objectives.
Interactive Learning: Encourage student participation through storytelling, arts, and workshops.
Cultural Awareness: Support reconciliation efforts by teaching students about Indigenous culture in an age-appropriate, meaningful context.
CLASSROOM VISITS FOR GRADES K-12
We have partnered with Anglophone South School District and the Department of Education and Early Childhood Education to offer storytelling in classrooms in the Greater Saint John area since 2022.
A visit from First Nations Storytellers to your classroom will involve the sharing of one or two cultural stories with an overarching message around reconciliation. Our team adjusts the messaging to be age-appropriate and typically includes learning a few Mi’kmaq words.
