Observed annually on June 21, National Indigenous Peoples Day recognizes the rich heritage, diverse cultures, and ongoing contributions of Indigenous Peoples. This day provides an opportunity for students, staff, and families to learn, reflect, and celebrate the traditions, languages, knowledge, and achievements of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities.

At NCDSB, we are committed to fostering understanding, respect, and reconciliation through education. National Indigenous Peoples Day encourages us to deepen our appreciation for Indigenous perspectives and to celebrate the vibrant cultures that continue to enrich our communities and country.

We invite everyone to take part in local events, cultural activities, and opportunities for learning and reflection as we honour Indigenous Peoples and their enduring contributions to Canada.
