On the Ground: PeaceBuilding Workshop
Our very own Brian Weir and Grade 6 teacher Ms. Carolyn DeGroot did a workshop on peace with her class September 17th.
The students had been studying peace through PeaceQuest.ca and peaceoneday.org resources culminating in a workshop on how to de-escalate a verbally angry confrontations. It went very well. Ms. DeGroot’s students have been doing work on peace activities and were very receptive. All were given the link to the Peace One Day concert from Africa on Sunday the 21st by Ms. Degroot.
Thank you Brian and Ms. Degroot!
