By Division 11
Orange Shirt Day is this Friday. We encourage everyone to wear an orange shirt. Why? An orange shirt was taken away from a residential school Survivor: Phyllis Webstad. This day raises awareness of the residential school system in Canada. Wearing orange reminds us of the impact of residential schools still felt today.
We will have an assembly beginning at 1:10 p.m. Please join us for a day of Reconciliation and reflection. Students will be dismissed at 2:00 pm this Friday afternoon.
On Monday, September 30, the school will not be in session for National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. This is an important day of reflection to honour Survivors, families, communities, and remember the ancestors that never made it home.
Please feel free to visit the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation website to continue the learning and reflection at home.
