General Information:
Spring Break 2013: a reminder that the last day of school before Spring Break is Friday, March 8th. This is a regular school day. Spring Break is two weeks. The first day back after Spring Break is Monday, March 25th.
Anti-Bullying Day/Pink T-Shirt Day: on Wednesday, February 27, 2013 we encourage everyone to wear something pink to show that we have zero tolerance for bullying. Pink Shirt Day comes from two Nova Scotia high school students, who decided to take a stand against bullying in their own school. At Rogers, every day is Anti-Bullying Day.
Bullying is defined as intended unwanted, aggressive behaviour that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behaviour is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time.
On February 27th we will be having two assemblies: one for our 4 & 5 students at 9:00 am and another assembly at 10:30 am for our K to 3 students. Both assemblies will feature a presentation from Brian Price, an Olympic Gold and Silver Medalist. Brian will be talking to the students about the importance of character, which is a very fitting topic for Anti-Bullying Day. We look forward Brian's motivating message!
Breathing for calm: have you ever needed your children to become 'calm' in your car or home but it seems difficult to achieve? Try belly breathing with your children. A few minutes of some deep, focused breaths can really slow down the energy and bring about calm. To learn more about child oriented belly breathing, check out the youtube video featuring Elmo on the Rogers Belief Blog at: http://rogersbelief.blogspot.ca/
Enjoy the last week of February!
