Happy Friday, Grizzly Families!

Students had an exciting and meaningful week at Glamorgan School! The beautiful weather added to the positive energy as students participated in Pink Shirt Day, engaging in important learning about anti-bullying and the importance of creating a safe, caring, welcoming, and respectful environment. The week was also highlighted by the conclusion of the SoundKreations dance residency, where students showcased their creativity and movement skills. A special moment was the Grade 5/6 Be Brave Game field trip, where they joined over 17,000 students in a powerful event promoting kindness and standing up against bullying. It was truly an inspiring week filled with learning, teamwork, and fun!
