We were super excited to have seen the mural finally come to LIFE in our gymnasium. We know that there was a lot of work that went into this masterpiece with Justin and Mrs. Scarrow (and the teacher committee), we also appreciated that ALL students voices at Andrew Sibbald had an opportunity to contribute to this.  "I am happy he recognized that Justin added the parts we wanted to see in it." Norah "I liked that he added holding hands with each other, and the different colours because we all have different skins."
