Summertime

- Nishnawbe Aski Nation, 2005 -

Summers were fun at the residential school. We played baseball and football in the field near the school. Sometimes we had a little tournament where we would play a game against the older kids, or the staff. After these tournaments we often ate outside – sort of like a picnic.
