Our Tribute to the 215 Children

Students in Div. 14 are extending their condolences to the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc Nation in the recent discovery of the 215 indigenous children. The residential school in Kamploops was the largest in Canada so the impact of this is enormous as many Nations across BC had children who attended this school.

Div. 6 students had an idea to paint rocks orange to commemorate this discovery. These rocks will become a monument at a place within the school community(to be decided).

Those of us who are not indigenous must take  the action of teaching the truth about the residential schools and move towards reconciliation.
