On Nov 16th, at approximately 11:00 a.m., over 1,000 students from Riverside School Board's St. Lambert schools will be participating in a wave against bullying. Over the past few weeks, some of the students have been involved in performing skits, making posters, listening to testimonials, etc., all to help them realize that bullying hurts and that it is time to do something to stop it.
Student at St. Lambert Elementary, REACH, Chambly Academy, PACE and the Alternate School will be gathering together, shoulder to shoulder, from one end of Green St. to the other. The students and teachers will be participating in the wave as a culminating activity to their campaigns against the harmful effects of bullying.
Organizers have applied for recognition to the Guinness World Records for the event, which will take place rain or shine.
Note: given the current situation with half of the down town streets dug up in St. Lambert, having a student wave running the length of Green should make driving in St. Lambert interesting, to say the least!
