The Woodland Cultural Centre is excited to announce our Orange Shirt Day programming! This September we will be having Truth and Reconciliation virtual events for two weeks during the month of September.
There is virtual programming for elementary and in-depth programming for middle and high-school, as well as educational opportunities for Organizations.
What is Orange Shirt Day?
Orange Shirt Day or National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (September 30), is a day when we honour the Indigenous children who were sent away to residential schools in Canada and learn more about the history of these schools. It has become a national campaign to raise awareness and provide education about residential schools in Canada.
School and Organization Programming:
These virtual events will be held exclusively over Zoom. School programming is $10.00 per participant, while organization programming is $13.00 per participant. Each session includes a pre- and post-event package, with a debrief and Q&A session with a Cultural Interpreter to provide participants the opportunity to ask questions. To secure your spot, please register early, as the number of participants can be adjusted before the deadline. The registration form is required to reserve your virtual tour, and a follow-up email will be sent closer to the booking date to confirm the final participant count.
