First Nations Storytellers

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.

First Nations Storytellers recognizes and affirms that we operate on the unceded and unsurrendered ancestral lands of the Wolastoqiyik, Peskotomuhkati and Mi’kmaq, respectively known as Wolastokuk, Peskotomuhkatik and Mi’kmaki. These lands are covered by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship first signed with the British Crown in 1725, and then recognized and affirmed by Canada in section 25 and 35 of the Constitution Act of 1982. We invite you to learn about these agreements and how they protect the livelihood and cultural practices of the original inhabitants of this land you call home.
