Presentation


      Bullying presentation
      June 5, 2013

     This morning students from grades 4 and 5 attended a presentation on bullying.  The presentation was given by Alyssa Wyspianski, a former student and now Miss Teen Manitoba.   Alyssa talked about ways to prevent bullying and help people who are being bullied.  She also shared her experience about being bullied and how adults helped her.  She talked about exclusion which is also another way of being bullied.  She really wanted to be part of a group when she was growing up and had difficulty being accepted in the “cool group”.   As Teen Manitoba, Alyssa shares her story with various groups hoping to help people realize that there is help out there.  You can tell an adult you trust, your friends or parents. Our students were engaged in the presentation and asked a lot of questions.  The more tools we give them the better they will be equipped to deal with situations if they arise.
