Truth & Reconciliation Commission Report
|
In February our staff participated in a professional development day that focussed on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report. The day involved two sessions. The first session featured Fr. Peter Bisson, SJ and Fr. Winston Rye, SJ speaking about the Society of Jesus' role in the report. The second session featured Mr. Curtis Kleisinger and Ms. Terri Cote from Mother Teresa Middle School in Regina. Mother Teresa is a Jesuit Nativity school with a predominately First Nations student population.
Since February, teachers have brought what they have learned into the classroom. The St. John's Native Friendship Centre has been to the school on a number of occasions to conduct various sessions with our students. As well, the grade 8 class is currently collaborating with students from Mother Teresa via Skype, working on a project using the computer program, Minecraft.
