Shkoday

Help Us Spread the Word! Rockin' Recovery 2026

Oshki Early Childhood Education students visited Shkoday yesterday for their Outdoor Education class. Students toured Shkoday. A few of the activities they did was make a fire, made bannock to roast over the fire, and completed their assignments by sharing and incorporating what they had learned throughout the course. It was nice to see the smiles, laughter and sharing of cultural knowledge. Chii-miigwech Oshki students for joining us for the afternoon!

Pathways Thunder Bay had a successful first year of tutoring in high schools and co-hosting with schools the educational, reconcilaction mini Powwows.
Chi-meegwech to the Powwow planning group which consisted of students, First Nation, Metis, Inuit Graduation Coaches at Hammarskjold High School, Superior Collegiate & Vocational Institute, and Westgate Collegiate & Vocational Institute, Pathways Thunder Bay staff, Elders and Knowledge Keepers. We would also like to thank Emcee’s, Arena Directors, Drum Groups, Lead Dancers, registered dancers, students, teachers, principals, Lakehead District School Board, the community, and Shkoday’s IT for their assistance, support and participation.

This month children participated in a science experiment where they observed chickens hatching. They learned about the different stages of the life cycle, from egg stage to the hatching process and finally watching the chicks hatch into chickens. The experience encouraged curiosity, observation skills, and discussions about growth and life cycle.
