We Day Pictures and Comments

"We Day" at GM Place was a fantastic day! Here are some pictures and students' comments we would like to share with you. Enjoy...









After the "We Day" event, student leaders were asked to respond to the following question: One learning I will take with me will be…

“If the problem is huge and in many different locations, all it takes is one person. Each time you do something (small even) you’re going one step further to helping the world. Like a staircase, each little thing you do is one step further to the top. You alone can make a big difference!”
-Tarek

“Our generation is not only the future, it is now! I think it is important not to start helping people later but to start now and build on what we are doing from smaller to bigger projects as you grow.”
-Emma

“The idea of respect. It is easy to forget every day that everyone has feelings which can be hurt. The idea is to put yourself into someone else’s place and think what it is like to be hurt.”
-Joel

“No matter who you are or what age you are, you can always make a difference in the world. We are the next generation!”
-Emma B


What an amazing group of student we are working with!
