Pink Shirt Day @ Randerson


Mrs. Jones and Mr. Mazzei showing their pink spirit
The hallways and classrooms were a sea of pink today as Randerson students and staff, took time to talk, discuss, reflect and problem solve issues around bullying and how we can all be part of the solution.





One focus was on the role of a bystander. Our grade 2's listened to a story, followed by a discussion.

Here are some of their responses:
 
"If someone is being bullied, hurt or just sad you have to get a duty."   Gr. 2 Niyah

"Yell at them to stop and yell really loud!"  Gr. 2 Jared

"Get an adult as soon as you can." Gr. 2 Rylan

"Don't just stand there, if you see someone getting bullied make sure you stand up for them other wise you're being just as bad as the bully.  Help the person. " Gr. 3 Sarah


Jaden (Gr. 2) chose this book for her book talk today making the connection to pink shirt day and 'how a puffer fish deals with bullies'. 



Gr. 1's made stop bullying posters

      

Our K/1's made pink t-shirts & included ideas on being a good friend
