Drum Making and Cedar Basket Workshop

Professional Learning Day at Musqueam, May 15, 2015

Today, 190 Richmond teachers and support staff were welcomed onto the Musqueam Reserve, for a great day of learning.  The day was opened by Musqueam Cultural Interpreter Alec Dan, followed by a keynote from Spirals of Inquiry authors, Judy Halbert and Linda Kaser.  Groups then broke into 3 sessions, a Residential School Simulation with Brad Marsden, and an inquiry workshop, and a Musqueam Walking and Cultural Centre Tour.  We were treated to a delicious lunch from Salishan Catering.  Our day closed with remarks from Alec Dan, and his wife and son, and an amazing Honour song by a group of our Musqueam hosts, that will be remembered by all.
