École Démosthène had their first Peace Week in May 2015.  The students enjoyed the following peace building activities throughout the week:

 

They created peace pinwheels.

They broadened their horizons by learning about great world leaders and their inspirational quotes.

They wrote post-it notes about each other’s positive traits.

They began a Peace-pal Movement during recess time where the assigned peace-pals intervene in schoolyard conflicts on a daily basis.

They will also receive a ‘Peace-pal Certificate’ at the end of the school year. (Program for cycle 3 volunteers only).

They took part in a daily challenge and used a daily inspirational quote as food for thought throughout the day.

They discussed and shared stories about ‘anti-bullying’ and ‘stand-up to bullying’.

They established a peace motto for their school.

 

Our week was a success!
