                Families and caregivers welcome
                May 10th 6 - 9 pm in the library

Talking to kids about sexuality and reproduction can be difficult for adults and caregivers.  The Options for Sexual Health (www.optionsforsexualhealth.org) interactive Askable Adult program will look at how to begin discussions and how to share information with kids in a clear and understandable way.  You will hear suggestions on:  - What kind of sexual health information is needed at various ages?
        - How to handle questions?
        - What kinds of words to use?
        - How to discuss feelings, emotions, and family values?
                                                                                                        
ASKABLE ADULT/PARENT WORKSHOP IS SPONSORED BY:  DBES PAC; RCES PAC; SCAS PAC.

BULLYING DAY WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 29TH

The Davis Bay School community was treated to improvisational theatre preformed by the Chatelech Secondary Theatre Society.  We welcomed 7 actors, two of whom are DBES alumni, who used the story of the Three Little Pigs to increase awareness regarding what bullying is, how people are effected, and how to positively respond.  The Big Bad Wolf was placed on trial before a jury of students who all voted in favour: B.B. Wolf was in fact engaging in bully behavior.  Each actor gave a testamonial regarding their personal experiences and positive solutions.  Together, the DBES students and staff, and the CSS Theatre students read and signed the following pledge:
DBES ANTI-BULLYING PLEDGE

“ I agree to stamp out bullying and all forms of violence.  I believe that everyone should be able to enjoy our school equally, feel safe, secure, cared for and respected.

 
                                                                        By signing this pledge I agree to:

                                                                        S upport and speak out for students who have been subjected to bullying.

                                                                        T each by example treating, other students with respect and refuse to bully others.

                                                                        O pen my eyes and be alert toall incidents of bullying and be a responsible bystander who is part of the solution.
