A live performance of How Raven Stole the Sun gave the school community a chance to experience the richness of oral storytelling. Shared in an engaging and interactive way, the traditional Indigenous tale brought important teachings to life.
Grounded in the First Peoples Principles of Learning — particularly that “learning is embedded in memory, history and story” — the performance featured three students who helped dramatize key moments. Guided by a visiting storyteller, the young actors took on their roles with growing confidence and enthusiasm, contributing to a performance that was both memorable and entertaining.
The experience also supported the school’s focus on literacy and comprehension. By highlighting the importance of oral tradition, it helped learners see that stories can be shared in many forms — not just through books. It reinforced the idea that storytelling connects us to culture, learning and one another.
