The W̱SÁNEC School Board hosts PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ at the Tribal School in Brentwood Bay, BC (W̱SÁNEĆ territory). The W̱SÁNEC School Board offers students a cultural education in addition to the standard provincial curriculum, emphasizing the revitalization of the SENĆOŦEN language as well as traditional skills and practices. Together we are raising up generations of W̱SÁNEĆ youth with hands-on experience growing traditional & healthy foods and restoring native ecosystems!

PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ is happy to partner with the Living Lab Network, a coalition of the University of Victoria and Indigenous community partners throughout Vancouver Island. We continually work towards ecological restoration, Indigenous resurgence, and aligning institutional resources with community needs.

It’s HAT’s vision that the lands and waters of the southern Salish Sea are stewarded to sustain their health, cultural values, and biodiversity through reciprocal relationships for generations to come. HAT works closely with us at PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ to support the stewardship of the first W̱SÁNEĆ Village SṈIDȻEȽ, through collaborative volunteer events ensuring long-term care and through public engagement to conserve biodiversity and climate resiliency.
