Peel schools recognize Indigenous Heritage Month and Hindu Heritage Month in November

Throughout November, schools across the Peel District School Board will recognize and celebrate Indigenous Heritage Month and Hindu Heritage Month. Schools will participate in a number of activities to honour the rich culture, heritage, contributions and diversity of First Nation, Inuit and Métis communities across Canada,  Hindu Canadians, and Hindu communities from around the world.

​As part of the board’s commitment to equity and inclusion, the Peel board approved a motion on April 9, 2019 to recognize and celebrate Hindu Heritage Month in November. At the Regular Meeting of the Board on June 19, 2019, trustees approved a motion to recognize and celebrate Indigenous Heritage Month in the month of November.​
