Month: December 2018

At the beginning of the school year all students of Stoney Creek had an opportunity to develop their ADST skills with Alex McKillop, our Applied Design, Skills & Technologies District Advisor as they planned, designed, cut, sanded , and decorated wooden leaves for our school kindness mural. The next time you are in the school be sure to stop by the office and admire their beautiful artwork.  Like leaves blowing in the wind this mural will be a permanent reminder for us all to perform random acts of kindness and give back to the community in positive ways.

Aaron Nelson- Moody led students through a guided session on indigenous art and storytelling.  Students learned about the significance of a house post and learned about the symbols commonly used in First Nations art and carvings.  They then had an opportunity to create a drawing of a salmon using the techniques demonstrated by Aaron Nelson- Moody.
