A dance to bridge communities

The entire student body and staff of Stoughton School and Ocean Man School do a traditional round dance within a ring of tipis on the grounds of Stoughton School on Thursday. The dance was led by singers from Ocean Man around a drum in the centre of the circle, and ended the first of a two-day cross-cultural workshop held at the school. The workshop, hosted by Ocean Man Band and the Yorkton Tribal Council, was held to promote greater understanding between the communities of Stoughton and Ocean Man, and to help each community understand the cultural background of the other.
