Today is Heritage Day. This year we honour William Hall, VC.

A son of refugees of the War of 1812, Hall was the first Black person, first Nova Scotian, and third Canadian to receive the Victoria Cross.

It’s #givingtuesday- there’s still a lot we can do even if we don’t have the ability to buy things. We talked about Random Acts of Kindness @RkTelementary GSA. Allies decided to pick up garbage around the school! Giving is easy. @HRCEHealthPromo @HRCESafeSchools @HRCESchoolsPlus

@RkTelementary’s GSA Allies did a beautiful job of collecting their hopes for their school, connecting with one another by saying something positive about a peer and talking about what having a GSA means for them. @HRCEHealthPromo
