National Day of Truth and Reconciliation 

Unisus School invites everyone to join us in wearing orange shirts on Friday, September 29th, as we come together to honour and show our respect for residential school survivors.

Our heartfelt assembly, led by the Student Council and Anona Kampe from the Penticton Indian Band, will commence at 8:45 AM on Friday.

We extend a warm invitation to our entire community to participate and join us at the assembly and in donning the colour orange for this meaningful occasion.

School is closed on Monday October 2 in observance of the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation.
