Friday Feeling | Kindness, clubs and cool weather – The Ottawa Catholic School Board

For this week’s #ocsbFridayFeeling, educators and students embraced pink shirt day, loved exploring in the freshly fallen snow, and formed new clubs that involved lots of collaboration and conversations. Some fortunate students attended a Women in Trade event, and Black History Month wrapped up with celebrations showcasing the many talents and amazing creativity of our students.

We are kind in K7! We learned how to say "arrêt!" to bullying. 👚 @StVeronicaOCSB #ocsbPinkShirtDay #ocsbBeKind pic.twitter.com/FzGvpOHMul

I wish everyone could’ve listened in on the discussions had by our gr. 5 & 6 students about civics. They watched debates, met candidates & researched each party’s platform. After their research, & convos w/family members too, they did their own student vote! So important! #ocsb pic.twitter.com/r4LLt4I6AN

I love how the KP3 students show kindness/“la gentillesse” through their actions by helping, caring and including friends. ⁦@StRitaOCSB⁩ pic.twitter.com/hb3u7fEOzB

Forest Friends put our new binoculars to the test during sit spots. With a closer look, we made new observations about the wonders of the forest around us. A great way to connect with nature and sharpen our observation skills! @StMonicaOCSB #ocsbOutdoors @ocsbEco @OttCatholicSB pic.twitter.com/zXueYzawW8
