On Friday, December 12, 2025, Quw’utsun Secondary School hosted our Elders Christmas Bingo event. It was a truly beautiful afternoon filled with laughter, connection, and community.

We raise our hands in gratitude to Francine Thomas, Roberta (Bobbie) Gabriel, and the Quw’utsun Secondary students for their kindness, support, and hard work.

We are deeply thankful to everyone who helped make this gathering so special, and to the schools who generously donated prize baskets for our Elders. Your thoughtfulness is truly appreciated.

Happy holidays from all of us a Sul-hween Lelum 💛
