We visited Glendevon Primary and Junior High School on Monday, January 11, 2016, where we officially started off our End Bullying Program with a Devotional exercise, officiated by team member Ms. Sanjay Brown. Le Antonio’s Foundation Youth Coordinator Mr. Odane Reid spoke to the students about Bullying during this period.
After the Devotion we visited some of the classrooms in grades three, Four, five and Six and A-Step classes to continue speaking with the students about Bullying and its effects on our Youths. We concluded this campaign day by meeting with the principal and guidance counselor.

Our next visit was at Salt Spring Primary on Tuesday, January 12,2016. The team started off the day at Salt Spring Primary School with a Devotional exercise conducted by Ms. Sanjay Brown, followed by team member Nickolla Barnett who spoke to the students about Bullying.
