This multimodal video captures young children's pedagogical encounters with Deep Creek, exploring sensory relationships with Place through smell, movement, and mapping. Beginning with the question, "Who does Deep Creek belong to?" children engage in a process of inquiry, tracing the ways scent marks the identity of the landscape. Through walking, photography, digital mapping, and drawing, they document the evolving presence of Deep Creek, culminating in new ways of representing smell as a living, spatial phenomenon. The project invites reflection on how children participate with Country, foregrounding embodied, relational, and multisensory learning.
