Children at both of our Snuneymuxw Daycares have been learning about the life cycle of salmon by raising Coho fry from their eggs in their classrooms.

Last month, they released 200 fry into the stream together🐟💦

We are so proud to see our children connecting to their land and learning to care for our Coho relatives.💙
