The Inuttitut UKâlalautta have been set as the new name for the Inuktitut Speak-off.
Christine Nochasak will be the host of the event.
She says the dates kept changing a few times due to COVID restrictions and have not yet been finalized until the restrictions ease off on March 14th, 2022.
Inuttitut UKâlalautta will be taking place at the Illusuak Cultural Centre, in the theater from 6 to 8pm.
The Northern Lights Academy in Rigolet, J.C. Erhardt Memorial School in Makkovik, the Amos Comenius Memorial School in Hopedale, the B.L. Morrison School in Postville and the Jens Haven Memorial School will attend the speak-off.
Two students with one teacher from each school will be chosen to participate along with two commentators, but the names are still to be determined.
We will get more information once the Newfoundland and Labrador English School District approves to get the details set in stone.
Once the approval from NLESD is confirmed, we will have all the details for the Inuttitut UKâlalautta coming from Nochasak.
