RAINBOW DISTRICT—Rainbow schools will honour our planet Mother Earth Shkagamikwe on Earth Day, today, April 22. Earth Day is an annual event that celebrates environmental achievements and, more importantly, raises awareness about the need to protect natural resources for future generations.

This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet” aims to foster a widespread commitment to clean air, safe water and climate resilience to build a healthy, sustainable, equitable and prosperous future for all.

“From an Indigenous perspective, we can invest in our planet Shkagamikwe by taking the time to acknowledge the life-giving qualities of the earth, and spending our personal time connecting with land, water and nature.”
