Thanking educators who are making a difference in the lives of so many, and acknowledging parents and caregivers who are homeschooling.

Schools have reopened yet we remain in a time of transition.

Education, like other institutions, require change moving forward. Around the world, restorative practices play a key role in building relations, enhancing learning, resolving conflict, and creating healthy, robust school communities.

We are honoured to work with schools. Contact us if interested in facilitation, training, or presentations.


 

Remembering the Children Who Never Returned Home

The Canadian Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) revealed the names of children who died as a result of  residential schools. This memorial remembers and honours the children, as well as recognizes the pain inflicted on families and communities. There remains extensive work to be done and it continues to be updated. This helps toward fulfilling one of the 94 calls for action of the TRC’s final report.

Resources and Inspiration

Kindness Starts with You – what if we ditched homework for a month and did acts of kindness like this school in Ireland? Way to go Gaelscoil Mhíchíl Uí Choileáin, Clonakilty!

A very special acknowledgement of Malala Yousafzai, who was shot at age 15 for speaking out on behalf of girls and their right to learn, won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 becoming the youngest-ever laureate, and just graduated from Oxford. What a remarkable woman and journey that continues!
