What's in YOUR Invisible Suitcase?
Think about your family's special stories What traditions do you celebrate? What skills have family members taught you? Where has your family traveled from?
Meet Our Culture Custodians
Some classmates are Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller community members They are experts on amazing traditions and history They will teach us about their rich heritage We will learn about traveling, craftsmanship, and storytelling
Meet Our Bridge Builders
Other classmates are our Community Builders They will help create connections between all of us They will design ways we can live together happily They will make a Unity Manifesto for our school
The Mosaic Activity
Each person gets a colored paper square Decorate your square with something that represents YOU We'll put all squares together to make a class mosaic See how beautiful our differences look together!
Our Mission: Two Important Jobs
{"left":"Culture Custodians will research and share GRT heritage, traditions, and skills\nBridge Builders will create unity activities and write our class manifesto","right":"Both groups will teach the whole class new things\nEveryone will contribute to our Unity Fair celebration"}

Remember Our Goal
'A school is like a mosaic. If all the pieces were the same color, the picture would be boring. When we put our different colors together, we create something beautiful.'
Let's Begin Our Journey!
