Hosted by the Membertou Student Council, the day featured cultural workshops, including medicine pouch making, Waltes, lessons on ethical harvesting, as well as information sessions on traditional justice and the Mi’kmaw Grand Council.
ABMHS Culture Day
To help kick off the 2024/2025 School Year, Allison Bernard Memorial High School hosted a Cultural Day with various workshops including Mi’kmaw crafts, medicine pouches, Moss Bag teachings, Puppet Work Shop, Fleshing deer hide, and more! A powwow with Kojua dancing, drumming and singing filled the afternoon with delight.
Thank you to Stoney Bear Drummers, ABMHS Girls drum group, and all of the student and staff coordinators for making this unforgettable day such a success!
Allison Bernard Memorial High School
Rooted in culture, focused on growth, and building for the future! Founded in 1998 as Eskasoni High School, ABMHS serves students in Grades 9–12 and blends the Nova Scotia Curriculum with a strong focus on Mi’kmaq language, culture, and tradition.
The school celebrates identity through vibrant Mi’kmaq artwork, annual events like the ABMHS Pow-wow, and recognitions such as the Role Model of the Year Award. Students benefit from academic and personal support, with a range of extracurricular clubs and sports. As construction of the new high school continues in Castle Bay, set to open as early as September 2026, the current ABMHS building will become the new home for Eskasoni Middle School, welcoming Grades 5-8.
