Indigenous Culture and Diversity Awareness at Dodginghorse Ranch

By: Tara Hebert, STS Teacher

On October 8, 12 STS teachers across all three grade divisions attended a workshop at Dodginghorse Ranch on Tsuut’ina Nation.

Facilitated by Sonya Dodginghorse, teachers engaged in meaningful learning, collaborating, and sharing that focused on Indigenous culture and diversity awareness. The day's activities and sessions were supported by Sonya's family and even ran overtime because of all the sharing that was occurring. Dodginghorse Ranch offers equine therapy sessions that assist participants in understanding their place in the circle of life. The workshop was very impactful and teachers left feeling immense gratitude for the opportunity.
