Black History Month
February is Black History Month, a time to celebrate the rich history, contributions, and achievements of Black Canadians. Throughout the month, our students will be engaging in a variety of in-class activities, exploring important figures, stories, and events that have shaped our country. These enriching experiences will help our students learn about the diverse cultures and experiences within the Black community and the ongoing importance of equity and inclusion. We look forward to sharing some of their learning with you!
"Stick with the Truth" Presentation with Aubrey Noronha
On the morning of February 12th, we will be welcoming Aubrey Noronha from hellohope.ca to St. Luke Nepean. Aubrey is a recognized speaker on Safe Schools, Mental Health, and Anti-Racism. His presentation, "Stick with the Truth," focuses on anti-racism truths and empowers K-6 students to take action. This program aligns perfectly with our school-wide Student Achievement Plan by promoting equity, diversity, and inclusion.
