Here we are in the last week of February, and now into the second half of the school year!
This coming week we have Pink Shirt Day/Anto-bullying Day on Wednesday, this is always a great reminder to treat others with kindness. Miss Keay, along with our teachers have planned classroom activities around this topic. This is a good time to remind others about taking a stand against bullying and speaking up!
Wishing all of our Titans Families a wonderful weekend!

Pink Shirt Day
Pink Shirt Day
In Canada, one in three students have reported being bullied (Bullying Canada, 2022). Both the victims of bullying and the bullies are at risk of higher rates of suicide (Holt et al, 2015, as cited HERE). These statistics highlight how serious the problem of bullying remains.
Pink Shirt Day is a day to wear a pink shirt or some token of pink to show support and stand up for the victims of bullying. We often talk about how to stand up to bullies, but what if your child is the one doing the bullying? This can be a very tough conversation to have if you know or suspect that your child may be perpetrating acts of bullying. Take the time to reflect with your child and understand from their perspective. Do not judge their actions. Some reasons kids may bully others include seeking attention from others, low self-esteem, or an inability to properly express their feelings (Stomp Out Bullying, 2022). Developing a trusting and open line of communication might be one way to help your child understand that bullying is not okay.
