Treaties Recognition Week
Our class is looking at our school land acknowledgement.
"At Moraine Hills we would like to acknowledge that we live, work and play on Dish With One Spoon Treaty lands. This treaty agreement is an understanding that all people - past, present and future - who share this land are responsible for making sure that we are kind to ourselves, kind to one another, and kind to the land that we call home. In this spirit, we are working towards peace, reconciliation, and equal rights for our indigenous partners."
Why do we say this at the beginning of assemblies and other important events?
What do you know about The Dish with One Spoon Treaty?
