Students celebrate Anti -Bullying week 1‘ St. Anne's r school news Colin Dobson, Minister of Public Relations Approaching late Novem- ber, it seems as though the snow has officially hit. This week at St. Anne's, students from the Catholic elementary schools of Huron County gathered for the annual volleyball tourna- ment between Grade 7 and 8 students. Graduation photo sessions have begun for sen- ior students, too. These ses- sions offer students and their families an opportunity to look back on their final year of high school in their gradu- ation attire. The Vow of Silence began at 9 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 20. Student participating had the choice to abstain from verbal communication or the use of social media such as Twitter or Facebook. The Vow of Silence helps raise awareness of injustice across the world, and helps us rec- ognize the important of free speech. The vow ended at 3 p.m. and was directly fol- lowed by the Break the Silence Rock Concert where St. Anne's students gathered in the gym to enjoy an even- ing of music. Our Anti -Bullying week was a great success as we focused on gossip, respect- ing differences and ensuring that our language is polite and respectful. Our Advent Campaign begins this week as we col- lect teen gifts for the Christ- mas bureau, Room to Grow items for babies and warm clothes for local charities. Our Co-op students will put on a fair on Tuesday, Nov. 25 to teach us about their place- ments and our Students for Social Justice begin their campaign, Sow Much Love.
