Our website is currently undergoing some updates. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Since the beginning of time, children have not liked to study. They would much rather play, and if you have their interests at heart, you will let them learn while they play; they will find that what they have mastered is child's play.

The Alberta Orff Chapter is based in amiskwaciy-wâskahikanand invites members across treaties 6, 7, 8 to learn, create, play and perform on the traditional gathering places of the Nêhiýaw, Dene, Dunne-za, Dene Tha’, Nakota Sioux, Siksikaitsitapi, the Métis nation of Alberta, and Inuit.
As an act of reconciliation, the chapter is committed to learning from knowledge keepers, elders and artists from these Indigenous communities. We invite these important community members to share their culture, language, teachings, music and dance with our community. With these teachings, our members are encouraged to help grow a generation of students who are committed to reconciliation through the arts.
