Manidò Nagamon ~ Song of the Spirit

• The lodge is a learning space dedicated to Indigenous culture and practices as well as a place where Indigenous students can come to express themselves through their culture, and share their experiences with other students and mentors.

• Lunch time activities and drop-ins most days of the week, with different community organizations (Wabano, Inuuqatigiit, Odawa, Metis Nation Ontario & Carleton University).

• The Lodge has three main purposes:
• To provide a space for Indigenous educational programming at the school level
• To provide a space for professional development and Indigenous educational programming board-wide, and
• To provide a culturally safe and relevant space that can be used by the First Nations, Métis and Inuit community for events through the Community Use of Schools process.
