In March 2022 I was privileged to attend a seminar hosted by keynote speaker Dr. Kevin Lamoureux. The focus of the seminar was on how to talk to children about Truth and Reconciliation. This topic is so important for us moving forward. I believe that we can start talking to our children about Reconciliation and Indigenous history early on in their lives. In fact, I think it is essential. This seminar offered ways to make this achievable. One thing I took away from this experience was emphasising the importance of family and community.
This was the second time I was able to hear from Dr. Lamoureux this year. I was also honored to hear him speak in February 2022 as apart of an sd73 professional development day. I feel like the big takeaway from that seminar was how we can implement teaching about truth and reconciliation into our practice respectfully and and appropriately.
