Treaties Recognition Week
The Grade 2/3 class at Holy Cross explored the history and significance of Treaties between First Nations and settlers. Students learned about the promises within these agreements, the importance of honoring them, and our shared role as “treaty people.” To reflect on their learning, students created a Treaty Tree, with each leaf featuring a promise they wrote to uphold the Treaties in their lives. This activity deepened their understanding and commitment to justice, responsibility, and respect, reflecting our Catholic values.
