Healing Circle Planned
An Aboriginal healing circle is planned by the Thunder Bay Catholic District School Board this week. It's to help three Fort William First Nation students at Pope John Paul the Second school. Education director Joan Powell says it's to allow them to overcome their concerns after a staffer made a reportedly offensive remark. She says two trained facilitators will lead the circle, one of them is Aboriginal. The principal and staff member from the school will also be present. The healing circle takes place Friday at the board office.
