A great start to the year at École Willow Point, full of creativity, curiosity, and connection. 💙 #DayInTheLife #CRSD72 #SD72Learns

🎶🥁 Staff at Penfield started their year in a powerful way – through song, story, and drum painting. On the August 28 Pro-D day, Qwaya Sam and his son guided staff in finishing the drums they had started making together last year. Qwaya opened the morning with drumming and singing, sharing reflections on culture before staff began painting designs he had prepared over the summer. The activity was meaningful, creative, and uplifting – a wonderful way to begin the school year together. Once completed, each class will have their own drum, and Qwaya plans to continue working with the Penfield drum group. It was truly a positive start to the year! ✨ #CRSD72 #ProD #LearningTogether
