The Ojibwa culture is rooted in a wholistic way of life that embraces a relationship with all living things. Individuals living or learning about the "The Red Road Life" experience & display joy, celebration & the ability to give thanks.

"Every little thing is sent for something, and in that there should be happiness and the power to make happy,
like the grasses showing tender faces to each other; This we should." 
~Black Elk

HIFN Daycare provides social support & educational services to our First Nation children, youth and their families. The indigenous pedagogical plan is primarily based on the Ojibwa culture & language while respecting & supporting all participating children's language & cultures. HIFN Daycare believes that: It is our desire that we and you should be as one heart, one mind, and one body, thus becoming one people, entertaining a mutual love and regard for each other, to be preserved firm and entire, not only between you and us, but between your children and our children, to all succeeding generations.

Parents can assist with field trips, attend their child's birthday luncheon, social events, and share information with the Centre about their child's individual needs. Newsletters and information sharing occurs regularly. We invite your input. Questionnaires are distributed annually. Your feedback is valued and appreciated.

What is the Indian Boarding Homes Class Action?

In the 1950s, the Indian Boarding Homes Program placed First Nations and Inuit children in private homes for the purpose of attending school. This Settlement provides compensation to people placed in these homes. You are a Primary Class Member if Canada placed you in a private home, between September 1, 1951 and June 30, 1992. You may still be eligible if you were placed after June 30, 1992. People who were placed in private homes, but died on or after July 24, 2016, may also be eligible, and their estate can apply on their behalf.

How can I know if I am eligible?
