Flags to be at half-mast to recognize the 215 children whose lives were taken at the former residential school

Beginning May 31, flags at Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) buildings and schools will be lowered until June 8 to honour the 215 children whose lives were taken at the former residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia.

We extend our sympathies to the families of these children and of the thousands of children who were sent to residential schools, many who never returned. At TLDSB, we commit to continuing our learning about the lives forever impacted by the residential school experience in Canada.
