The Media and our Children
What is the effect of our ever increasing media on our children and our families? If you were not able to be at Kym Stewart’s presentation last night, please take a moment to read her handout to parents. It will make you think and question some of the things we take for granted! We all need to be aware of the effects of the media on our children and our families.

Please find attached the newsletter of Ski Trip Reminders that was sent home with all students who are going on the ski trip to Worsley on Wednesday, Feb. 20. It looks like it will be a great day for skiing!
Media Education workshop for parents
Be sure to mark your calendar for a presentation by Kym Stewart, an expert in the area of Media Education and our students. Kym has studied students and the effects of media on them for many years here and in other countries. She will have many interesting facts to share and ideas for us as adults to help our children become more aware of what the media is trying to say to us and to be more cognizant of the time we are influenced by media. Please check this link to read more about Kym Stewart and her work. kym-stewart-bio.pdf
