Collecting Rocks

At Alexis Creek Elementary /Jr /Sec School, we decided to embark on a special project for recognizing Orange Shirt Day, and Truth and Reconciliation. For our project, we needed to collect river rocks. We found a wonderful spot at the bridge near Yunesit'in, where the Chilcotin River gifts us with many beautiful shaped river stones and rocks. We spent part of our morning collecting river rocks. We began by saying thanks to the rocks for letting us move them to our school where we can paint them and honor them in our project. We all worked together to gather those perfect rocks. The rain didn't bother us a bit.
