National Aboriginal Day

Module 3 Post#2

I have jumped ahead with two of my module three posts as I have an extremely busy three weeks ahead of me.

I just received an email today from our Aboriginal Education teacher at our school letting us know that today is:

National Aboriginal Day, it is a day recognizing and celebrating the cultures and contributions of the First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada.

I Googled this to learn more about National Aboriginal Day and found the below link very informative:

I also learnt that National Aboriginal Day is a paid holiday for employees in the Northwest Territories, except those in the Northwest Territories Teachers’ Association (NWTTA).
