Our team has been working diligently for the past several years on gaining a deeper understanding of the Indigenous peoples of Canada; their history and stories which are so rich and complex. Stories of beauty, courage and love and many stories that are very traumatic and sad. Through these stories we see such resiliency and fortitude. We have all taken courses, read a variety of literature and in our own way, done some work towards reconciliation. This walk was our commitment to reconciliACTION as a school- and to have included our children and families felt very rewarding. We have so much to learn- how to be better allies to Indigenous peoples- supporting true reconciliation and working towards a better and more equitable future. Thank you to all our families for joining us for this powerful journey that we all must take together. We are proud to announce out Thompson Community Centre Herons donated $1370.00 to the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Foundation.
