Sikh Heritage Month is proudly recognized at the Toronto District School Board all through the thirty day period of April considering that 2016 as the Board of Trustees voted to designate April of every single yr Sikh Heritage Month creating the TDSB the first school board in Canada to do so. This designation matches the recognition by the Province of Ontario that proclaimed Sikh Heritage Thirty day period Act in December 2013, and the recognition proclaimed by the Authorities of Canada on April 30, 2019. Sikh Heritage Month is identified nationally across Canada.
This yr our theme is Arrive to study, go to serve the intention of schooling is to provide humanity.
Sikh Canadians have lived in Ontario given that the convert of the twentieth century. They have created substantial contributions to the development and prosperity of Ontario and their traditions and tradition go on to be a vibrant artwork of every single aspect of lifestyle for Canadians right now.
