Michif Early Learning Program
In partnership with the Métis Nation of Saskatchewan, Good Spirit School Division is proud to announce that there will be a Michif Early Learning Program for children ages 3 and 4.
This program focuses on developing a stronger sense of identity through the exploration of Métis cultural knowledge and will introduce early learners to the Michif language.
Where will the program be held?
The program will take place at Columbia School in Yorkton, SK.
Why should my child attend?
The Michif Early Learning Program will infuse Michif language and Métis culture into the existing provincial curricula for Early Years Education.
Through educating Métis children, it is possible to help in the revitalization of the Michif language and instill Métis cultural knowledge and understandings.
Michif Early Learners Will:
- Experience cultural teachings from a Métis perspective
- Learn in a play-based environment
- Have the opportunity to connect with and learn from Métis Knowledge Keepers and Michif language speakers
