On October 20, Huband Park Elementary School hosted Canada's first ever Downie-Wenjack Breakout Box game with Bobbi Carter's grade 5 class. Students learned the story of Chanie Wenjack while using clues from his story to unlock the Boxes. The Downie-Wenjack Legacy Schools Foundation promotes reconciliation and provides learning materials for schools that foster awareness about residential schools in Canada. This is the first Breakout game inspired by the story of Chanie Wenjack in the country.
