What is Indigenous Peoples Day?
-- Taken from https://www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca
PPCS staff and students recognize the value of diversity within our society and acknowledge the unique and valuable contribution of all cultural backgrounds to our school community. On June 21, we will take time to acknowledge, celebrate and learn about the Indigenous cultures specifically. This is an opportunity for our students to serve our students as they take on the role of teachers for the day. Through the work of our grade 8 students, Mrs. Sharon Meyer and a variety of guest presenters and teachers, our students will be able to make there way from station to station learning about and experiencing a variety of Indigenous traditions and teachings.
We are looking forward to the opportunity to host such an event and are thankful for the rich cultural contributions of our Indigenous Peoples to our community.
