PRESENTATION

 

 

A)

"First Peoples Principles of Learning": A Review of Indigenous Programming at the Burnaby Village Museum

Presenters: Sanya Pleshakov, Museum Programs Coordinator

Meagan Innes, Indigenous Enhancement Teacher

 

 

Ms. Deborah Tuyttens, Museum Services Supervisor, introduced Ms. Sanya Pleshakov, Museum Programs Coordinator, and Ms. Meagan Innes, Indigenous Enhancement Teacher. Ms. Innes introduced herself and spoke in language of her ancestors, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh sníchim. The speaker provided an overview of the new indigenous program at the Museum that supports the revised BC curriculum, and complements the Museum’s relationship with many local First Nations, including agreements with the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, Kwantlen, and Musqueam on a multiyear research project. 

 

Ms. Innes noted that elementary students gain a deeper appreciation of First Nations culture and history, and community members get an opportunity to learn the shared history of indigenous peoples that lived in the area and that travelled through the area, learn the language by engaging and sharing stories, as well as share Canadian history and participate in decolonizing a colonial space. 

 

Ms. Pleshakov provided an overview of her experience with the First Nations history, education and programming. It was further noted that the Museum is working on the Indigenous History Resource Guide with local First Nations, and this collaborative work is based on trust, relationships and respectful dialogue.

NEW BUSINESS

 

 

            His Worship, Mayor Hurley – In Memorium – Former Councillor Barbara Der

 

            His Worship, Mayor Mike Hurley acknowledged the passing of former Burnaby    Councillor Barbara Der, who passed away on 2019 June 13. The text of the     Mayor’s statement follows:

 

“I would like to take a moment to remember former Burnaby Councillor Barbara Der who passed away June 13th.

 

Barbara Der was elected to Council in November 1999 and served until 2002.  She served on the Environment and Waste Management Committee, the Simon Fraser Liaison Committee and the Traffic and Transportation Committee.

 

Her volunteer work was extensive, beginning when she was still a young child in rural Alberta and taught Sunday schools.

 

As a resident of Burnaby, and later New Westminster, Der volunteered for groups that include: Terry Fox Run, Burnaby Hospice Society, B.C. Coalition to Eliminate Abuse of Seniors, Burnaby Food First, Burnaby Historical Society, Community Centred College of the Retired, Woman’s Bank Society, South Burnaby United Church, B.C. Seniors Games, Hyack Festival, Sapperton Days, 12th Street Music Festival and the Anvil Centre – the list is very long.

 

A few years ago, when she was interviewed by a reporter about her many volunteer activities, she said she always wanted to be the kind of woman who, when her feet hit the floor in the morning, the Devil would say “Oh crap, she’s up.”

In accordance with City policy, our flag will fly at half-mast on the day of her memorial service, July 5.

 

Rest in Peace, Barbara Der.”
