​We hope you all had a wonderful break. Have a great first week back at school! 

​ The Tla'amin Nation and #SD47 have collaboratively created a Traditional Skill Builders program for Indigenous students in grades 10-12. This program is a land-based, experiential, and culturally immersive program that honours Indigenous knowledge and ways of being and doing to provide students with a safe, holistic, and identity affirming education while offering credits towards their graduation.

​Created by Terri Mack (Da'naxda'xw Awaetlala First Nation), the Strong Nation reader sets are designed for literacy instruction with high interest topics and contain Indigenous content and art. These readers make space for Indigenous students to see themselves reflected in the fabric of our schools while supporting our district's goals of building learner success, engagement, and connections.
