Marie Sharpe Elementary
What a fantastic last day of school here at Marie Sharpe!
Today, we celebrated our Grade 6 Leaving Ceremony! Over the last few months, our Grade 6 students designed and helped create their own ribbon shirts or skirts, and this morning they proudly wore their finished creations. They all looked fabulous! Here are photos of some of our Grade 6 graduates and a few of our major award winners.
We also hosted our annual Last Day Powwow, celebrating the learning, relationships, and cultural experiences that have been woven throughout the school year. A huge thank you to Williams Lake First Nation for joining us to drum and dance, and for continuing to share their knowledge, traditions, and culture with our students. Our Grade 6 students even had the opportunity to use the drums they made this year as part of the drumming, making the celebration even more meaningful. It was wonderful to see our entire school come together in song and dance, honouring local Indigenous culture and celebrating alongside one another. We are grateful for the relationships and learning that help make experiences like today possible.
