Dear Parents,
Starting in April, as part of our aboriginal Talking Circle group sessions, the students involved, will be learning and implementing the use of Smudging.
Smudging is a tradition, common to many First Nations, which involves the burning of medicines gathered from the earth. We will be using sage in our smudge at Golden Gate.
Many schools are making the tradition of smudging a part of their practice during particular events or as part of the school day.
Smudging allows people to stop, slow down, become mindful and centered.
We wanted to make you aware and anticipate your support in the growing of our students’ life experiences. If you have any questions please contact Mme Marcoux at the school.
Sincerely,
Mme Marcoux
Ms Roadley
Mme Samborski
