The Education
Committee
"to
develop a better public knowledge of the Beothuk and other aboriginal
peoples of this province "
The Education Committee, a sub-committee of the Beothuk Institute's
board of directors, is working to develop appropriate educational
documents, publications and programs of events. A number of projects
related to all of these areas is under consideration; at present the
committee has four key projects
in progress:
- Promote an elementary
school program
- Promote a high school
program
- Erect commemorative plaques
"It
is time for us to get to know the Beothuk, to understand them as a
people, not just a moment in our history. When future generations hear
the word Beothuk, I hope that they will think of a vibrant thriving
culture, truly connected to the land that we now inhabit."
