As the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's final report states, the historical and current relationship between public education and Indigenous Peoples is very complicated, and when evaluated on the factors that define healthy relationships, does not measure up well

One of the CBE's initiatives, is to rebuild relationship and establish trust and a true 'Ethical Space' where people can come together to create a learning environment that supports holistic health and development is the 'Communi’Tea Indigenous Family Night'. This is a recurring seasonal event where teachers, Indigenous students, and their families come together to eat, share, and learn from our incredible Elders and Knowledge Keepers about Indigenous ways of knowing and how these principles can benefit us all in the educational setting.
