December 21st marks the winter solstice! This year, Elder Saa'kokoto shared teachings on the significance of this day with North Trail High School students on Nose Hill. Schools are invited to show a video of some of the teachings shared on this day found on our Insite page.

Grade 3/4 students are committed to bringing Indigenous languages into their learning circles with the inspiration of Treaty Words Annick Press

Students used harvested homemade ink to bring their illustrations to life.
