Daily Announcements - February 2

 

African Heritage Month – Every year we recognize African Heritage Month in Nova Scotia during the month of February. It is a time to celebrate the culture, achievements, and contributions of people of African descent in the province of Nova Scotia. African Heritage month is an opportunity for all Nova Scotians to learn more about our province’s shared history as we strive to create a more inclusive province. This year’s provincial African Heritage Month theme, “Strength in Unity – Moving Forward with Purpose, Prosperity, Power and Progress,” speaks to the collective power that emerges when African Nova Scotians and people of African descent come together with shared vision and intention. Unity is not passive, it is an active force that strengthens our communities, advances justice, and creates pathways for opportunity and growth.
