Kindness, Acceptance, Love

The Prairie Valley Board of Education has declared the week of June 8-14 as Pride Week across the division. To celebrate Pride Week, we will be having a school-wide assembly on Thursday, June 12. The focus of our activities will be kindness, acceptance and love. Students will take part in the following activities on that day:

Each grade has been assigned a colour of the rainbow. Students are encouraged to wear that colour, rainbow colours or Pride clothing.

Kindergarten/Grade 1- red
Grade 2/3- orange
Grade 4/5- yellow
Grade 6/7- green
Grade 7/8- blue

Staff and adults- purple

Students will gather in the gym and watch a short video on the meaning behind the Rainbow Flag. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYCldynNksw
Following the video, students will work together to create messages of kindness and colourful/rainbow artwork for a bulletin board display.
To wrap up, students will take part in a rainbow scavenger hunt. Weather permitting, we will go outside and work in our buddy groups to find items that are each colour of the rainbow. Students will receive a colourful freezie upon completion of this activity.

Thank you and Happy Pride Month!
