Our focus is around developing a strong sense of identity in our learners. 

Identity

How was my name given to me? 

Do I have any responsibilities connected to my name? 

Curricular Competency

Identity diverse characteristics of communities and cultures in Canada. How are names given across different cultural traditions? (SS2) 

Joy: Share stories and memories connected to our names. 

The work the classes engaged with demonstrates the alignment of our school story focus, SD38 strategic goals, and our First Peoples Principles of learning. The examples below show the rich learning around identity as a collaboration between the students, their parents, and our school.
