Each year, September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
The day honours the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.
This federal statutory holiday was created through legislative amendments made by Parliament.

The counselling department began individual interviews with grade twelve students this week. We will discuss post-secondary plans, career aspirations, mental health, and any other topics your son raises.
Once we have met with every student in grade 12, we will begin interviewing our grade nines. The focus of individual meetings in grade 9 is to get to know our new clients. We will check on mental health, discuss academic concerns, and assess how each student is faring socially in his new environment. We will review what services the counselling department can provide and answer any questions your son may have.
As always, if your son would like to schedule his own appointment, he can drop by in person or send a message on Teams.
Daily Math Help: Students in any grade who would like help with math can drop by Room B32 any day at lunch. Teachers and peer tutors will be available for assistance. No appointment is necessary.
Peer Tutoring: The counselling department has a comprehensive list of current students who tutor their peers in various subjects. This is a convenient option as the tutoring occurs at school and is inexpensive. Students interested in a peer-tutor match should contact their counsellor.
Adult Tutoring: The counselling department maintains a list of adult tutors who tutor in a given subject area, either at the school or at a student's home. Tutors set their pay rate.
If you are interested in the information that was presented to your son on the topics of university and scholarships, you may want to watch a video of the presentation. We are encouraging our senior students to be especially organized and independent in their final year at St. Paul's, so parents should feel no pressure to manage this material.
Students planning to attend a university in Ontario must apply to one centralized site called OUAC. Applications are then forwarded by OUAC to up to three universities of the student’s choice.
Scholarships Featured This Week:
IndSpire Scholarships for Indigenous Students which is an organization that manages applications for multiple scholarships using a single application and the Strike Equality Diversity and Inclusion Scholarships (categories of Canadian Immigrant, Indigenous, LGBTQS+, and Western Canadians).
Due dates vary by the category applied for.
