Our "Empowering Students Through Deep Learning" Focus group had a great time at Watson's Mill & Dickinson House today. Ss examined #primarysources and used #historicalthinking concepts to guide their curiosity and learning. #SFXFocus #ocsbDL St. Francis Xavier High School Kathryn DiGaetano (she/her)

Ms Kelly is going to look extra awesome in her new t-shirt! Go Be Kind!

A moving day at the Gidinawendimin - We Are All Related event. Many Ss gathered from across our nation to listen to residential school survivors & their families, appreciate the talent of many Indigenous artists & performers, & continue to learn about our role in reconciliation.

We had a great day at the National Gallery of Canada! Students spent the day learning about various artists and their work. They also participated in a sketching session where they created their own art inspired by techniques artists in the galleries use.
