ASD-N students attending the We Day Atlantic Canada event
last week had a very rewarding and motivating experience. Students from
Bathurst High, Superior Middle School, North and South Esk Regional, MVHS, JMH
and Nelson Rural School made up a sizable contingent. Their involvement, by
invitation only, speaks well for the awareness of global citizenship in
district schools. Global citizenship is considered by many educators to be an
important component of education for theĀ 21st century. Pictured here
are members of the Nelson Rural School delegation along with guest speaker
Spencer West. Below is a report from Mrs. Ellen MacDonald of Nelson Rural
School that outlines the experience and conveys the impact the event had on
those attending.
