In this episode of Prairie Rose Possibilities, we talk with school principal Jason Duchscherer about the innovative Learning from the Land project at Ralston School. Ralston is a unique JK-9 school with close to 50 % of the students coming from British military families who work at the nearby British Army Training Unit.
The conversation explores the integration of agricultural education, community engagement, and cultural traditions, particularly focusing on the involvement of British military families and their opportunities for Canadian prairie experiences. Jason shares exciting future plans for expanding the project to include a working farm, complete with cows, sheep and chickens, and emphasizes the importance of developing employability skills through hands-on agricultural experiences.
