Bullying Awareness Week - November 20-24
Bullying Awareness Week is November 20-24, 2023. It is a time to promote awareness and understanding of bullying and its impacts. Our schools are committed to being safe, welcoming, and inclusive environments. If your child needs support while at school , start by talking with their teacher.
This year’s theme, Where To Turn, encourages everyone to recognize that help is available, no matter who or where you are in the province.
