Upcoming Aboriginal Events
Each year the District holds various Aboriginal events with an overall goal of raising awareness of the Aboriginal Peoples and the importance of the inclusion of that history and culture in our education system.
All Aboriginal Events are open to members of the OCDSB family, members of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit families, and the broader Ottawa community.
Check back soon for information regarding upcoming events!
