National Indigenous History Month Celebration at M.V. Beattie
Posted on 2026-06-10 16:44:13.611 +0000 UTC
On June 1, 2026, staff and students from M.V. Beattie Elementary School and Shihiya School came together for a day of learning in recognition of National Indigenous History Month. Students had the opportunity to learn from several Knowledge Keepers, rotating through a variety of engaging, hands-on stations in multi-age groups.
Activities throughout the day included drumming, traditional games, storytelling, and an assembly that brought everyone together in a spirit of respect and community.
At lunchtime, students and staff enjoyed bannock and chili, generously provided by the Shuswap Food Action Society and Souper Meals.
We are so grateful to the Knowledge Keepers and community partners who made this special day possible.
