Island Lake Public School

As February unfolds, Island Lake Public School embarks on a month of significance and celebration: Canadian Black History Month. This dedicated time allows us to recognize and honor the countless contributions Black Canadians have made throughout history and continue to make today. From trailblazing leaders and activists to artists and everyday heroes, their impact resonates in shaping the diverse and inclusive nation we proudly call home.

This month is an opportunity to delve into the rich tapestry of Black history, acknowledging both the triumphs and struggles that have shaped our collective identity. By understanding and appreciating this heritage, we foster a more inclusive and equitable society. Join us in commemorating Canadian Black History Month as we embrace diversity, amplify unheard voices, celebrate Black Brilliance and collectively march towards a future built on unity, understanding, and shared stories.

Let this month be a reminder of the strength found in our diversity and the power of learning from one another’s histories.

We will be proudly flying the Pan-African flag till the end of February.
