Messages of Hope

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 -- In preparation for Orange Shirt Day on September 30th, the students at Judge Bryant School wanted to share messages of hope and positivity beyond the walls of the classroom. To do this, they painted rocks a bright orange colour in honour of those who attended residential schools and the precious lives lost there, and then wrote thoughtful, inspirational messages.

Having these rocks placed throughout the area around the school is intended to inspire members of the community who might come across them. Reconciliation begins with relationship, and this is a way to start that.
