The four Anglophone School Districts are once again recognizing and celebrating National Indigenous Peoples Day today, Monday, June 21st . In addition to the school and classroom based activities already planned, A Celebration of Culture from 10:40 a.m. - 11:40 a.m., was live-streamed from Elsipogtog School on the Anglophone district North’s YouTube channel, at https://youtu.be/7_u3iUmDAZU
As you know, this year has been an exceptional challenge for everyone across our province, country and world.
We are also aware that we have asked our students to be incredibly adaptable and resilient as restrictions on mask wearing, in-school learning and blended learning change from day to day. We want to take this opportunity to share our gratitude with our students.
We are experiencing some very unusual early hot weather. Due to the continued heat warnings and temperatures forecast for certain regions of our district, the following will be the plan for ASD-N on Tuesday, June 8th:
Congratulations to Harcourt School student Jada Joseph for being the New Brunswick Student recipient of the 2021 Rick Hansen Foundation School Program Difference Maker of the Year Award!
Each year, on September 30th, ASD-N staff and students are invited to participate in “Orange Shirt Day”. This day is designed to educate and bring awareness to Canadians about the Canadian Indian residential school system that existed in our country and the impact it has had on Indigenous Communities and people for more than a century.
With recent news regarding the former Kamloops Indian Residential School, ASD-N would like to renew awareness.
Friday, May 21st was a historical day for North and South Esk Regional School, as they permanently raised the Mi'kmaq Grand Council Flag in front of the school entrance.
NSER is the fourth school in Anglophone North School District to permanently fly the flag.
The ceremonies were opened by two NSER students who acted as MC's for the day, followed by a prayer by a Metepenagiag First Nation Elder, and the playing of the Gathering Song by the NSER Drum Group.
