Yellowknife Catholic Schools’ staff and students are grateful to live, learn, and play on thetraditional lands of the Yellowknives Dene First Nation, in Chief Drygeese territory. Since time immemorial, these lands have been places of learning, where knowledge holders have shared teachings about hunting, trapping, fishing, harvesting, and living in respectful relationship with the land.
We honour and respect the histories, languages, cultures, and ongoing contributions of First Nations, Métis, Inuit, and all First Peoples of Canada. Their wisdom, traditions, and presence continue to guide our learning and make our community a rich and meaningful place to grow together.

We remain in continuous contact with the Department of Environment and Climate Change (ECC)/Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and will update parents if the situation changes before the end of the school day.
