Learning and Earning in the Circle of Life for K-5th Grade
The Creek Aboriginal Circle of Learning and Earning is a program that focuses on teaching aboriginal and indigenous knowledge to promote sustainability and earth stewardship.
This program offers children from all around the world the opportunity to learn and earn through the circle of life. In addition to gaining knowledge about their cultural heritage, children also develop important life skills such as character building and financial education.
The aim is to equip them with the necessary tools to learn and earn throughout their lifetime. By participating in this program, children not only gain a deeper understanding of their roots, but also cultivate a sense of responsibility towards the environment and their community. Through the Creek Aboriginal Circle of Learning and Earning, children are empowered to make positive contributions to the world around them.

Join Our Membership Program for All Grade Levels!
Aboriginal Circle Membership is a gateway to unparalleled learning experiences. Delve into the pages of our culturally diverse STEM curriculum, where each module intertwines scientific principles with the wisdom of Elders, Indigenous artifacts, storytelling, and the vibrant traditions of Aboriginal communities. From launching rockets inspired by celestial navigation to exploring the medicinal properties of ancient plant knowledge, every activity breathes life into the essence of AIPOC culture, dispelling the notion of people commonly called a color instead of a culture.
Decolonization lies at the heart of our mission, as we endeavor to dismantle the barriers that have historically excluded marginalized communities from the realms of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. By reclaiming our narrative and reshaping the educational landscape, we empower the next generation to walk confidently in the footsteps of their ancestors, armed with knowledge that seamlessly blends Western education with the wisdom of Indigenous cultures.
Unleashing the Potential of the next Generation of Social Entrepreneurs for a Sustainable Future!

These remarkable individuals possess a unique ability to learn and earn in a manner that harmonizes with our social and environmental surroundings, nurturing the circle of life on our beloved planet.
But let us not mistake this endeavor as just another educational platform; it is, in fact, an audacious crusade. Our ultimate mission is to rejuvenate the profound connection between humanity and the rest of creation, empowering our generation to be catalysts for life's prosperity. Together, we shall embark on an awe-inspiring journey to support and nurture all our relations.
Let us grasp this opportunity, let us shape the future – a future where the social entrepreneurs of tomorrow lead us towards a sustainable paradise, where life flourishes, and the circle of existence thrives.
