Mrs. Condon and the Grade 2 class at St. Lorenzo is a group of young learners committed to understanding and honouring the history and culture of Indigenous peoples. Through an immersive and creative approach, these students have engaged in various artistic and cultural activities that bridge the past, present, and future.
They have created art, crafted traditional items, learned musical instruments, and practiced dances, all while reading a variety of children's picture books that provide insight into the historical events and cultural practices that have shaped Indigenous communities. These activities have deepened their understanding of the past's impact on the present and future, fostering a sense of empathy and a commitment to reconciliation. Using a Fine arts approach Mrs. Condon strives to build a foundation of respect, awareness, and action towards a more inclusive and understanding society.
