Honouring National Indigenous People’s Day

June 21st is National Indigenous History Day in Canada. It’s a time to honour the stories, achievements and resilience of Indigenous Peoples.  Confederation Park Elementary was proud to honour this day by having a primary event called “One voice, One Heart, All Peoples” in which our students gathered in a drum circle with their newly made deer hide rattles and sang two Indigenous songs: Gitsigakomin and L’il Wat Song.

Students were also read a beautiful story by Monique Gray Smith entitled “ When We Are Kind”, learned about the history of Bannock and had a chance to sample some for themselves!

Across the District, there are a variety of opportunities throughout the school year to celebrate diversity, inclusion and kindness. When students feel represented, welcome, supported, respected, and safe, they are more engaged in learning.

Confederation Park Elementary is proud to join schools across the District and province showing our support for inclusion and kindness for all!
