Explore what Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples did and continue to do for fun! Students will learn about the history and culture of the Anishnaabeg and Haudenosaunee through several traditional games, including bone & toggle, mini-double ball, and peach pit. Lacrosse will be included in the program during the warmer months, weather permitting. During the winter months, Inuit high kick will be played instead of lacrosse. Pre- and post-program work will enable students to learn about their treaty partners and will compliment the hands-on portion of the Indigenous Games program. (Program duration: 2h)
Program developed in consultation with Dallas Squire, Kahnyen’kehàka (Mohawk), Turtle Clan from Six Nations of the Grand River.
