Ethel Milliken Students Reflect about RIIS

JUNE 7, 2023 — Last month, the Grades 3 and 4/5 classes at Ethel Milliken School learned from Mr. Bill Wall about the Regina Indian Industrial School (RIIS) and the cemetery off Pinkie Road.

Bill, together with the classroom teachers, provided extensive history and insight into the significance of the cemetery and the children who are buried there during his classroom visit as well as the visit to the cemetery. The students spent time quietly walking the perimeter, reflecting on the stories told about the Regina Indian Industrial School. The students left apple slices as a gift to the children as they paid their respects at the graves.
