The Kids Nailed It!
In Sept 2021, representatives from Bragg Creek Wild met at Banded Peak School with Craig Churchill, the Grade 7/8 Science & Math teacher. We proposed a collaborative effort between BCW and the students. We were in need of social media content that appealed to people of all ages. Could the students help us, in their own voices, to raise awareness about issues facing our growing community?
We were absolutely staggered by the quality of the work we received.
If you use Facebook, Instagram or TikTok, you will see the students’ work on those platforms in the coming weeks and months. Some of the work will be used as posters around the hamlet, and in other awareness campaigns.
We’d like to thank, and applaud, every grade 7/8 student. We are more than impressed.
And thanks go to Craig Churchill and Simon Pols for welcoming BCW into the Banded Peak community.

Interactions and Ecosystems
"Students investigate and describe relationships between humans & their environments."
Bragg Creek Wild made presentations to all the Grade 7/8’s. We introduced the students to our organization, and reminded them of scientific concepts like habitat connectivity, wildlife corridors, biodiversity, wildlife migration and habitat fragmentation.
The students were left to make their own decisions about what to focus on from the curriculum module as future content creators. The results of their hard work are showcased below.
