The records on our site emerge from the cultural and physical genocide that the Canadian government and churches conducted through the Indian Residential School System, including the ongoing impacts.

Description
RG10: School Series. The School Files Series from RG-10 (Record Group 10) contains records relating to the administration of Indian residential schools and education in Canada between 1879 and 1953.
Curatorial comment
Cadet Corps files contain information on various recreational programming at schools. In most cases the records primarily relate to requests to establish and outfit brass bands, but often also include discussion of Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, Red Cross Junior, and other Cadet Corps training.

This file consists of one letter from the school principal stating that they are unable to establish a branch of the Canadian Red Cross Junior.
