Land-Based Education and Belonging: Juniper Elementary School

July 08, 2020 • Jen Watt • Season 2 • Episode 2

I talk to Lucy Mayor and Sherri Alexander about the well-being of belonging through a land-based program at Juniper Elementary School. We wanted to make one quick correction here in the notes that Thompson, Manitoba is a community of 14 000, not 1400! Happy listening.
