Students at George Jay Elementary School wearing orange shirts and holding paper “helping hands” decorated with Coast Salish art gathered for a special outdoor assembly Thursday afternoon.
Like many other schools around the region, George Jay was honouring the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, today, when schools are closed.
