People Who Change Can Change the World

You can change! You can become a person who can make a difference and change the world!
Benny DL, (Bruce Langford), shared this message in ‘Stand Up For Respect Shows’ at Mount Royal Public School in Brampton yesterday, (Peel District School Board).
In the grade 4-8 assemblies BennyDL sang a song called ‘The Circle’ which is about a boy who never thought he would be the person to make a difference. In the song an incident happens and the boy changes his attitude and starts helping others. He decides to no longer be a bystander. He becomes the person who really does make a difference.
You can change. You can become the person to make a difference. Realize that you can make up your mind to change and you could end up changing the world!
Bruce Langford will come to your school to present musical assemblies with Stand Up Now Productions. Contact him at bruce @standupnow.ca or 1-800-901-8831. See the Stand Up Now Website www.standupnow.ca

Cooperation Could Have Saved Phoebe Prince

The bullying tip for the day is about Cooperation.  Try to use cooperation! It is very important to know that cooperation will help reduce bullying.  
Try to cooperate with others.
Try to use words which will encourage people to cooperate.
Try to get along with others so they will want to cooperate with you.

I think you will find that once people see you trying to cooperate, they will try too. When more people start trying to get along, then bullying will start to disappear.

I believe that with more cooperation from those who knew her, Phoebe Prince could have been saved some of the pain she went through.

I believe that together, we can help eliminate bullying!

We talked about cooperation at Churchill Meadows Public School in Mississauga (Peel District School Board). Click on the video to learn more about bullying presentations and bullying prevention in Mississauga and Toronto area Schools.

 Chères Mme Finn et Mme Palmer,               

                Merci beaucoup d’avoir organisé l’assemblée formidable de taxage.  Le “D.J.” nous a montré d’excellentes stratégies pour arrêter le taxage.  C’était amusant d’entendre et de chanter les chansons rhythmiques!  Avec ce qu’on a appris on a écrit une lettre à une amie qui avait des problèmes de taxage.  On a créé des posters contre le taxage.  On va aussi faire du drame.               

                Merci beaucoup pour ce spectacle exceptionnel!

 Dear Ms. Finn and Ms. Palmer,       

                Thank you very much for organizing the great assembly of bullying. The “DJ” has shown excellent strategies to stop bullying. It was fun to hear and sing rhythmic songs! With what we learned we wrote a letter to a friend who had problems with bullying. We created posters against bullying. We will also do drama.

                Thank you for this exceptional show!
