Grade 7 class at Deerwood School highlight issues relevent to Thompson for social justice projects

A grade 7 class at Deerwood School is looking to get their messages heard on issues they believe are important in our community.

 

Sarah Schroeder has been teaching social justice as a part of the human rights unit for her social studies class, and her class has been inspired to research and share their findings on topics that are relevant to Thompson.

 

Those issues include Thompson’s homeless community, animal rights, suicide awareness, better local and provincial roads, recycling, and Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.

 

The students have incorporated these topics into mantras that will be aired on 102.9 CHTM from May 24 to June 4.

 

The Deerwood School junior high classes will also be holding a physically-distanced walk on May 26 to honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.
