Truth and Reconciliation 2023
Our week came to a close with students and staff showing their commitment to change by honouring Truth and Reconciliation Day, also known as Orange Shirt Day. There are many pathways to reconciliation but it all begins with RESPECT, respecting ourselves and each other, which is what we strive to do each and every day at St. Nicholas. Our commitment to remembering the past and improving the future is ongoing.
