Ontario has designated the week beginning on the third Sunday of November as Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week to help promote safe schools and a positive learning environment.
During Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week – November 15-21, 2020 – Ontario students, school staff and parents are encouraged to learn more about bullying and its effect on student learning and well-being.
At Our Lady of Grace we will be partaking in many initiatives throughout the week to raise the awareness of our school community.
Monday, Nov. 16 – Wear RED to put a STOP to bullying. Telling others to stop when and stand up for ourselves and our friends and say that bullying behaviour is not OK.
Tuesday, Nov. 17 – Wear two different shoes or mismatched socks: Think about what it is like to “walk in someone else’s shoes.”
Wednesday, Nov. 18 – Wear the rainbow (at least 3 colours). We celebrate that we feel free to make any fashion choices we like.
Thursday, Nov. 19- Wear your shirt backwards to remember we should never turn your back on someone in need.
