Celebrate Everything: Holidays, Celebrations and Days of Recognition

As the Louis Riel School Division works to create a culture of equity and inclusion, it is important that we develop an understanding of the people in our community. One way to do this is through learning about the many celebrations that are often left off of traditional school calendars. Last spring, we invited students to submit items for a divisional calendar of celebrations and other important dates. This calendar is a culmination of that collaboration and will hopefully grow over time. The list is by no means exhaustive and if you have information to add, we encourage you to contact us using the contact form. To learn more about how celebrating everything can enhance a sense of belonging, check out this article by Dr. Abdulrehman, a local psychologist who focuses on diversity and inclusion.
