Created in the Image of God: I Am because We Are (Ubuntu)

On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, 600 Grade 7 students and educators celebrated gathered at King Street Community Church for the final session of the Virtual Engagement Series, Created in the Image of God: I Am because We Are (Ubuntu).

Classes participated in the engagement series with Tanika "iNsight Riley" featuring guest speaker Matthew Jones "Testament". Each session covered topics from "SELF-Awareness – Who Am I?", to "SELF-Regulation – How Do I Feel?", to "SELF-Love – Words Have Power". 

Throughout the engagement series, students have courageously reflected, grown, and discovered the strength of their voices. 

At the special in-person Sharing Circle, students expressed their learning through poetry, song, dance, and art, celebrating identity, faith, belonging, and the truth that we are beloved children of God, stronger together.

We are so proud of the leadership, vulnerability, and creativity shown by our students, and grateful to our dedicated educators who supported meaningful conversations and reflection throughout this journey.

May the confidence, connection, and sense of belonging nurtured in this series continue to grow in our schools and communities.
