Two Faculty of Education teams ( the UR STARS--Student Teachers Anti-Racist / Anti-Oppressive Society--and the Middle Years students ) participated in the Annual Glen Anaquod Memorial Tipi Raising Competition in September . The Middle Years team won their heat with a time of 16:01 . This event provided an opportunity for students to participate in a cultural learning experience that they will be able to pass on to their students in the future .
