Aurora Grove continues to learn about Black history during Black History Month.
Grade 2 students learned about Rosa Parks and her courage to stand up for equal rights.
Our grade 6 students are learning about the history and journey of enslaved black people. They are creating a symbolic "Train to Freedom" railroad all along the second floor. They are working on understanding terms like segregation, racism, and oppression. They are learning about the journey, struggles, and culture of black people in Canada through a historical lens including those who lived Africville in Nova Scotia.
