National Day of Truth and Reconciliation
On September 30, Canada marked its first official National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
September 30th was previously known as Orange Shirt Day, when people would wear the colour orange in solidarity with survivors of residential schools.
This day is an important step in the reconciliation process. It provides an opportunity to recognize and commemorate the tragic history and ongoing legacy of residential schools, and to honour their survivors, their families and communities.
KYSA is cancelling the September 30th training/practices to give families the time for reflection and commemoration.
