Students Create Music Video “Dreamchild” in French, English and Mowhawk

A new video created by students at St. Willibrord School in Châteauguay, Que, near Kahnawake Mohawk territory has been making the rounds online, and has become the new anthem of the elementary school. The song focuses on messages of positivity, and was partially filmed near the Kahnawake Mohawk territory where a third of the student population lives.

The idea to make such an anthem came from music teacher Caroline Bouchard. She worked with executive producer David Hodges of N’we Jian to produce the music video. The students in “Dreamchild” are all in Grades 5 and 6, and have captured the attention of people across the world, including Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who wrote on Twitter “Now this is a beautiful way to celebrate diversity.”
