Education is a powerful tool for advancing ourselves and our communities. With the school year coming to an end, graduations have begun. This week, I was fortunate to attend the Grenfell Campus Convocation. It is always inspiring to witness our students reach their goals as they walk across the stage to receive their diplomas. The icing on the cake is knowing that our Nation was able to offer support along the way. We are proud to invest nearly twelve million dollars each year in our future generations.
Next week, Qalipu First Nation will be signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Academy Canada, one of the post-secondary institutions in the province that we work closely with. The agreement will set out a framework that will lead to transformative pathways to inclusive education.
Our relationships with our education systems are extremely important to us. We are committed to ensuring that our students have culturally appropriate learning experiences that reflect the truth of the past and create opportunities for a brighter future.
We rise through learning, not alone, but lifted by all those who dreamed of these moments long before us. We congratulate this year’s graduates and thank the educators whose guidance made their achievements possible.
