Inosivut is a course dedicated to the customs and cultures of Labrador. The purpose of the course is to explore the traditions of the people who live in our region, to learn about the environment of Labrador and to get a small taste of what make this region different from anything else in our country.
There are a number of areas of study that we will take part in as the course progresses. There will be the scientific knowledge of our regions weather and ecology, a study of orienteering and geocaching as a way to help build navigation skills, a study of transportation methods in the region, including boating and snowmobiling, as well as some cooking traditions to explore the things Labradorians did to survive.
Inosivut involves some study and research into the methods and traditions of Labrador, but it will also be a practical exploration. Students will have an opportunity to get out of the classroom and explore the environment and do what Labradorians have done for years. This may be as simple as getting outside to gather resources or going off for a traditional cup of tea over a cosy campfire. Involvement by each student will be necessary to get the most out of this course.
