Westgate School Professional Development

Our Professional Development Day on Monday, April 17th was related to the CBE Indigenous Education Strategy as well as the Truth and Reconciliation Committee recommendations to education.

Some of these learning activities were led by Lesley Tait, a Learning Leader at this school and two ATA members Shannon Gallant and Meghan Senechal.
