Shki-maajtaawin E-nmok (Ojibwe to English Translation - The Path to New Beginnings)
Our Purpose
It is our purpose to develop and promote First Peoples centered education and resource materials.               

Our Approach
·   We understand the significant roles language, culture and heritage play in successfully educating people. 
·   We believe the most stable and comfortable environment in which teaching and learning occurs, is one where people are encouraged to grow in human spirit and soul, as well as in mind, heart, and body. 
·   We feel educational excellence and freedom are best achieved with strong parental and community involvement.                                                                                                                                                                   
·  We know we can best serve educational needs by developing curriculum and resources that reflect the ‘way of life’ in which they exist.                                                                                                                    

              Shki-maajtaawin E-nmok takes a whole new approach to developing curriculum and resources                                                                                          it balances school life with a ‘way of life’

Our Curriculum Intent
Shki-maajtaawin E-nmok has been purposefully designed to provide an excellent First Peoples based curriculum but is in no way intended to replace an entire existing school curriculum. Shki-maajtaawin               E-nmok is about providing teachers, students and parents with an understanding and respect for First Peoples cultural heritage.
