Marymount Regals have come together to acknowledge and celebrate Black History Month. Ms. Frometa began to have conversations with students, asking how they would like their roots to be represented. From these conversations grew a new sisterhood, where Black students are provided with a community, brave space and the opportunity to create change.

Pius Students Creates Gallery Walk in Honour of Black History Month
Mrs. Digby’s grade 4/5 class at Pius XII School have been learning about a variety of influential African leaders in Canadian and American history. The students were asked to create a presentation on many different athletes, politicians’ and activists that have been recognized for their contributions and bravery to stand up for what they believe in. These presentations were on display in the library, better known as “Black History Gallery Walk” and classes and parents were invited in to learn about the opportunities, festivities and events that honour the legacy of Black people, past and present. Students, staff and parents were able to enjoy a snack and visit each booth that was set up by the students.
