The first event of the new #KCDSBFamily Series was a hit with school communities in both Kenora and Red Lake. The "Back-to-school Backpack Blessing" saw families enjoy a pizza dinner, play games and take part in a backpack blessing before the first day of school.
The #KCDSBFamily Series is a new initiative aimed at helping families connect with their school community. There will be numerous fun family-themed events happening throughout the school year. Keep an eye on your school's Facebook page for the next event!
