The Haisla Education department is thrilled to announce the upcoming Kitimat Community Services Society Literacy Kitimat Storywalk event!
What is a Storywalk?
A Storywalk involves a self-guided journey through story boards that allow participants to read a selected book while relishing the outdoors. It's a wonderful opportunity for families to stroll, read, and enjoy the experience together.
This year's featured novel is “Oolichan Moon” by Samantha Beynon, illustrated by Lucy Trimble, portraying the tale of two Nisga’a sisters.
The Storywalk will be available for approximately two weeks outside the Haisla Youth Centre building within their enclosed park, starting the week of June 17th.
We kindly request the community's support in ensuring that the story boards remain intact for everyone to appreciate.
In the past year, two Storywalks were organized, one at Centennial Park and the other in the green space near Tamitik in Kitimat.
We are delighted to host the "Oolichan Moon" Storywalk this year and hope you are able to take a stroll and have a read!
