🧡 Truth and Reconciliation Day | September 30 🧡

Today, we honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, and their families and communities. As an education centre, we stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples and recognize the importance of learning, listening, and committing to meaningful change.

Truth and Reconciliation is not just one day. It's a continuous journey of understanding, acknowledging past injustices, and working toward a more just and inclusive future.

We encourage everyone to:
🔸 Wear orange in honour of the children and Survivors
🔸 Take time to learn about the history and legacy of residential schools
🔸 Listen to Indigenous voices and stories
🔸 Reflect on how we can all contribute to reconciliation

📚 Education is a powerful tool for change — and we are committed to fostering awareness, compassion, and action within our community.

🍓 We are having so much fun learning about strawberries this week! 🍓

The learners enjoyed making a delicious strawberry trifle, got creative with strawberry mosaics, and explored their senses with strawberry playdough. The highlight of our week was picking strawberries together and enjoying some outdoor time in the sunshine! 🌞🍓🌿
