Orange Shirt Day

Mountview hosted a morning assembly that focussed on remembering the legacy of the residential schools, equity and empathy, and how history should never repeat itself. The attached photos are from that assembly. Students then went back to classes and did various activities with art and writing that focussed on their thoughts about acts of reconciliation that they can do as kids. Ideas like connecting with the land, spending time with elders, and including everyone in their circles emerged. It was a wonderful day.
