It’s difficult to paint a picture of what this classroom is like at West Royalty Elementary in Charlottetown. Seeing words in languages from all over the world taped to the walls might give you an idea.
“If you were to sum up this class, [it would be] ‘Welcome to Canada — it’s going to be OK,'” said Nick Sheehan, a teacher at the school.
“I think that this space is really important.”
Sheehan’s class has students from literally around the globe. There are kids from China, Syria, Chile and Germany, just to name a few.
