On May 23, 2024 the students and staff of ÉRBL gathered to observe the anniversary of the discovery of 215 unmarked graves at the Kamloops Indian Residential School site. In May 2021, the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc Nation announced the discovery of 215 unmarked graves at the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School. Ms. Geraldine William led our students through songs joined by drummers Mr. Clayton Gauthier and Ms. Sheila Gilpin. Ms. William and Mr. Gauthier were then joined by students who led the school on a memorial walk throughout the school grounds.
From May 21 to 23, 2024, students at ÉRBL collaborated with local artist Clayton Gauthier to create a distinctive piece of art for the school's main foyer. During this enriching project, students immersed themselves in the traditional stories of local animals and learned to depict these animals using authentic techniques. They began by sketching their designs on paper before transferring them onto wood rounds.
