INSPIRE OUR ROOTS
Our Grade 7 celebration focuses around family roots – more specifically, how they have been inspired by their family roots. The students were tasked with interviewing their grandparents and parents, or other family relatives, and finding out as much information about their lives growing up, where they are from, and their family traditions and values. Based on their information, students selected one family object, heirloom or aspect of their ancestry that was of significant importance in the lives of their relatives. Inspired by their family stories, students created 3-D representations of their selected objects, heirlooms or other, together with a written story describing their representation and family story. The students’ projects were nothing short of spectacular, and each one captured a very special aspect of their family. The students learned a lot about their family, and their masterpieces were set up in the hall for all grades and teachers in the school to enjoy. Each student was photographed with their project. We have no doubt that this experience made a significant impact in each students’ lives, as it made an impact on all who viewed their work. We, as a school, continue to be inspired by our wonderful students.
