Anti-Bullying Week - 'Be an Upstander not a Bystander'

This week is 'Anti-Bullying Week' at Georges Vanier Catholic School.  Throughout the week the students will be participating in lessons and activities that further their awareness and understanding of what bullying is and how to deal with bullying.
The goals of the lessons are:
-help students to better understand what bullying is by recognizing bullying behaviours
-teach students what happens to those who bully others as well as what happens to those that are bullied
-build a better understanding of how bullying affects everyone in the school
-provide positive and proactive strategies to students in order to help them deal with bullying
-promote love and kindness through the sharing of prayers and Gospel passages in order to deepen their understanding of how our Catholic faith calls us to deal with bullying.
