Kapawe’no First Nation – On an important day at KFN Collegiate and its schools, like Pink Shirt Day, the values of manacihitowin, or respect, resonate deeply. The message is clear: we must honor and care for one another while recognizing the responsibility we have towards our land. When we demonstrate respect, it nurtures relationships and fosters a supportive community.
The concept of manacihitowin teaches us that respect is mutual; when we respect others, we invite respect in return. Harmful actions only serve to damage our connections and the environment around us. By embracing respect, we can create a positive atmosphere for all, ensuring that kindness prevails over bullying every day.
manacihitowin – sakawmostos tahkonam ekwa kimikonaw manacihtowin tamanacihiyakwaw ki totimnawahk kispin kintawitin ekosi ti sih kanawapimkawiyin maka kispin ki miyinikan ka miytotahson ekwa ka maytotin kitaskiy
