University of Lethbridge invites community to virtual gathering to honour victims of former residential school

Thursday, June 3, 2021

The University of Lethbridge invites students, faculty, staff and community members to come together at a virtual gathering to honour the victims of the former Kamloops Residential School.

WHAT: Virtual Gathering

WHEN: Friday, June 4, 2021, 10 to 11 a.m.

WHERE: Join us on Zoom at https://uleth.zoom.us/j/91693773491

The abhorrent discovery of the remains of 215 children at the site of a former residential school in Kamloops is a time for grieving and reflection. In addition to a moment of silence, this virtual gathering will feature a prayer by an Elder and an honour song. Please consider wearing an orange shirt, if you have one, which commemorates the impact of residential schools.
