Louis Riel Day

NOVEMBER 15, 2024—Louis Riel Day is held every year on November 16th, marking the anniversary of Riel’s execution in 1885 in Regina.

Riel, the first president of the Métis Nation, led Métis people in the Red River Resistance and the Northwest Resistance but was captured following the siege of Batoche and put on trial for treason against Canada.

Riel’s legacy includes fighting for Métis people’s rights and identity, negotiating Manitoba into Confederation, as well as protection for minority language rights. November 16th honours the life and legacy of Louis Riel, celebrates Métis culture and traditions, and recognizes the contributions of Métis people to Canada.

Help Students Keep Warm This Winter!

NOVEMBER 14, 2024—Not all students have warm, winter clothing that is essential during Regina's cold winters.

To help keep students warm and safe, several Regina Public schools will be collecting new or gently used children's outdoor clothing, including clean winter coats, snowsuits/snow pants, sweatshirts, toques, scarves, mitts and new socks. The school division is also collecting clothing for students in need.

If you or your organization have items that you wish to donate, please drop them off at the locations listed below.

Transgender Awareness Week and Day of Remembrance

NOVEMBER 12, 2024 — Transgender Awareness Week is observed nationally and internationally every year from November 13th to 19th, leading up to the Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20th—a day to memorialize victims of transphobic violence. Transgender Day of Remembrance was first observed in 1998 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith who hosted a vigil in memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who had been killed that year. The vigil became a commemoration of all the transgender lives lost that year to violence and has since become an annual event.

Remembrance Day

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 — Remembrance Day is commemorated on November 11th each year in Canada and marks the ceasefire on the Western Front in World War I in 1918. The armistice (peace agreement) between the Allies and Germany at Compiègne, France took effect at eleven o'clock in the morning—the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

On Remembrance Day, Canadians pause to honour those who have served and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace.

Friday, November 8th is a PD day for all Regina Public schools. All schools and Division Office will be closed on Monday, November 11th for Remembrance Day so students will not return to classes until Tuesday, November 12th.
