RESPECT is our focus each and every day. The Staff at Williamsburg through the “Tribes” program encourages the following 5 Community Agreements: Attentive Listening, Appreciations/No Put Downs, The Right to Pass and Mutual Respect. http://tribes.com/
Next week, one of the many bullying awareness campaigns that run throughout the school year will be taking place. On Friday, November 22nd we are asking our staff and students to wear pink as a collective initiative to demonstrate our support of “no bullying”. Have you ever wondered how the Pink Shirt Campaign began? http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/bullied-student-tickled-pink-by-schoolmates-t-shirt-campaign-1.682221
Our Friday, November 22nd classes will be participating in various activities focusing on respect, caring, friendship and no bullying. We encourage all of our Williamsburg families to visit some of the many websites and as a family complete an activity or have a discussion on the topic of bullying. http://www.bullyingcanada.ca/content/239900
