Oki, Tansi
February is the month to share our value of kimmapiiypitsinni - kindness to all our relations. Our students are finding ways to acknowledge one another for their acts of kindness. We are filling our front entrance with hearts that describe the important actions our children take each day. Please stop and read them when you visit. We are also filling our hearts with our love for the land. You may see groups of our students on walk abouts. We are exploring our community, spending time with Na'a in our nearby natural spaces, drumming and singing our school song, offering tobacco in thanks, and finding our own special spots to sit, observe and think. When we are doing this, simply making friends with the land and nurturing our relationship with Mother Earth, then... we are truly experiencing the give and take of kindness. I am so grateful and full of joy when I hear how our students show their leadership through their acts of kindness. It's the best kind of learning when I am with our students sharing experiences, being observant and listening carefully... learning from the land.
