FNMI Symposium

A couple of weeks ago, West Gate P.S. had its first ever, First Nations, Metis, Inuit (FNMI) symposium. We had a visit from peers from Antler River Elementary School of the Chippewas of the Thames reserve in Muncey, Ontario, watched a drumming and traditional dance session, heard a singing demonstration and made an amazing art lesson with looms and beads based on Treaties. We also ate a delicious traditional lunch with our new friends. What an excellent day!
