Nishin! Engaging Wiikwemkoong youth in Anishinaabemowin.
We were honoured to welcome Loretta Fox-Assinewai, Coordinator of Anishinaabemowin Bemiikangik Naaknigewin with the RHT Robinson-Huron Treaty Litigation Fund, to Wiikwemkoong High School. Loretta and her team visited several high school classes to share important teachings and engage students in meaningful conversations.
Students had the opportunity to share their thoughts and reflections on learning Anishinaabemowin — including the challenges they face, how they learn best, when they feel most confident speaking, and what supports help them use the language in their daily lives.
It was a great day of learning, sharing, and connection. Kina gwoya gii mina wiisini! Gii kchinendamwag! Everyone enjoyed a good meal and left feeling happy and inspired.
Miigwetch to Loretta and her team for taking the time to visit and uplift our students. 💙
