The Teaching and Learning Indigenous Education team is pleased to share a new resource to support your engaging learning experiences on Orange Shirt Day. Tammy and Bernard Nelson, UCDSB cultural advisors share their written thoughts and their family with us as they reflect on Orange Shirt Day in a powerful PowerPoint presentation. It is with gratitude that we share Bernard’s story as a residential school survivor and how culture, and tradition demonstrates resilience and pride.
