Sackville Heights Junior High

April 16th, 2024

We would like to begin by acknowledging that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship”.

We also acknowledge that people of African ancestry have been in Nova Scotia for over 400 years.

Our Sacred Teaching for April is “Honesty ”
Honesty is from within and is not to be confused with truth.There can only be honesty if one is to survive.
