Additional Logo

• NEW LOGO: We have a second logo now for our Bobcats. This summer we commissioned Indigenous artist Brandy Jones to “Indigenize” our Bobcat logo for a bulletin board in our school.  Our additional logo provides our students will supplemental educational opportunities and it reinforces our intentional commitment to truth and reconciliation. Here is the artist statement and biography:

ARTIST STATEMENT to Bobcat logo:

This piece of work was created to honor all of the nations that reside within Saskatchewan. I was requested to include certain colours. Blue to represent St. Bernadette school colors - orange for every child matters - and yellow to represent positivity/brightness, new beginnings/optimism and warmth. The BOLD colors to represent their intent to make strides in their journey to truth and reconciliation. 

Brandy Jones Biography:  

Brandy Jones comes from a long line of medicine women. She is an Inuvialuit and Gwitch'in artist originally from Williams Lake, British Columbia who now makes her home on Treaty 4 Territory in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. Brandy has been drawing native art work since the age of five. As a Treaty woman in section 35 of the Canadian Constitution: First Nation, Inuit and Metis, Brandy carries all parts of the Indigenous People of Canada and USA. She is inspired by many different forms of Indigenous art. 

          Brandy’s work is a mixture of Inuit, Metis, Gwich'in, Haida and Salish.  The bright colours represent every Indigenous Nation. Her work represents the marriage of all Indigenous nations and the rising of a new generation that will help heal the elders, families and land again together. Brandy has a unique style that has never been seen before and is a celebration of the beauty, success, hardships, and perseverance of all Indigenous peoples.

         She uses her gifts to advocate, educate, inspire and motivate people to explore Indigenous culture. Brandy is privileged to work full time as an artist. Brandy’s artwork can be found under the name BrandyJonesIndigenousArtist @Tiktok, Instagram or Facebook.
