Love - February 9, 2024

Every month we are acknowledging students who exhibit virtues known in Indiginous cultures as the "Grandfather Teachings." We are proud to announce the recipients of the teacher-nominated awards for the February virtue of Love:

Mackenna Klassen (5A), Kaycee Makin (5B), Willow McLeod (5/6Fr), Arianna Galve (6A), Anna Price-Meyers (6B), William Hilman (6C), Danica Redikop (7A), Thomas Cardinal (7B), Hannah Managtag (7C), Kambriea Burns (7Fr), Gregory Whitefish (8A), McKenzie Wigle (8B), Cash Piercey (8Fr)

Love is unconditional and must be given freely. When we give Love freely, it comes back to us – in this way it is mutual and reciprocal. Love is between all of Creation, humans and non-humans. Love is represented by the eagle, who can travel over great distances and carry it and all of the teachings to the four directions of the Earth.

Courage - February 9, 2024

Every month we are acknowledging students who exhibit virtues known in Indiginous cultures as the "Grandfather Teachings." We are proud to announce the recipients of the teacher-nominated awards for the January virtue of Courage:

Madeleine Gravel-Jarvis (5A), Aurora Raines (5B), Marley Ladue (5/6Fr), Rexleye Besuyen (6A), Eveah Whitehead (6B), Karla MacGregor (6C), Mileena Courtoreille (7A), Haley Noskey (7B), Kale Vanderaegen-Tubbs (7C), Ryder Banville (7Fr), Savanna Hackworth (8A), Emily Hackworth (8B), Maryn Smith (8Fr)

The Bear provides many lessons in the way it lives, but courage is the most important teaching it offers. Though gentle by nature, the ferociousness of a mother Bear when one of her cubs is approached is the true definition of courage. To have the mental and moral strength to overcome fears that prevent us from living our true spirit as human beings is a great challenge that must be met with the same vigor and intensity as a mother Bear protecting her cub. Living of the heart and living of the spirit is difficult, but the Bear's example shows us how to face any danger to achieve these goals.  Our January recipients let nothing stand in their way.

Wisdom - December 20, 2023

Missing: Tommry Rosin (5B)

Wisdom is represented by the Beaver. Wisdom means using your inherited gifts wisely and recognizing your differences and those of others in a kind and respectful way. Listening with clarity and a sound mind, combined with the experiences of life, is what we refer to as wisdom.

Joshua Poole Award - June 21, 2023

Félicitations to Rose MacDonald, 13th recipient of the 2023 Joshua Poole Memorial Fellowship award. Joshua was a Grade 5 French Immersion student at TAN when he was diagnosed with cancer and died a short time later. He was an extremely kind, caring, and compassionate person who was always thoughtful of other people's feelings and appricated their differences. This afternoon, last year's recipient Avi Johnson (left) presented the award to Rose who, she said, embodies many of Joshua's characteristics and helps make the world a better place. We are proud to have you as one of our #teamawesome members, Rose!
