Happy Indigenous Day to the first people of the land. We can learn a lot from them about respecting and caring for the land which gives us so much! @DHarkness_CBE @EdMattersYYC

My grade 1 Ss blew me away this morning with their answers. I just want to celebrate all the amazing growth they have achieved this year! @DHarkness_CBE @EdMattersYYC
