TRIPS

Each year, NS students raise money to go on a trip at the end of the year. The purpose of these trips is to share their Inuit culture and the story of Nunavut with people (especially Indigenous people) in other parts of the world, and to learn about their history and cultures as well.

Students raise money by soliciting support from local and regional organizations and businesses, and from various government departments. They also contribute their own money, and raise more by performing in Ottawa.
