Land-Based Learning
September 23, 2024
Re-connecting with the land and creation is both culturally and academically important at Oskāyak.
We have access to an outdoor classroom and programming at Eagle Creek for the study of prairie ecology and environmental issues. There is a new building on this site and soon there will be a sweat lodge that will be accessible for school sweats.
The land was bequeathed to the Saskatoon Catholic Schools Foundation by the Scissons family in honour of their parents, Ed and May Scissons, with the understanding the property would be used to teach children about nature.
