In the first half of December 2012 a number of activities related to the implementation
of the project called "A School
Day With No Aggression"
(worked out by the Team of Teachers for Preventing and Solving Educational Problems)
were carried out in our school. It was a preventive undertaking going under the
slogan “Let’s Be Kind and Helpful”, and whose key objectives could be
summarised as follows: prevention of socially undesirable behaviour
– aggression and violence; moulding pro-health attitudes; popularising the rules of proper interpersonal
communication; developing in a person a sense of responsibility for themselves
and others.
The project
comprised such activities as: giving classes promoting a sense of safety while
being educated; organising two competitions – a literary one (writing
greetings-wishes concerning the celebration of “A
School Day With No Aggression”) and an art one (making an emblem symbolising kindness); holding
school exhibitions with the competitions prizewinning entries; putting on a
play; creating a thematic multimedia presentation; issuing a special edition of
Luzik (a magazine edited by the
students of our school) devoted to ways of preventing aggression in educational
centres; creating a wall newspaper depicting the history of “World Hello Day”
(21st November) and putting it in the main hallway of the school
building.
On 14th
December the final part of all the project activities took place. First the
audience gathered in the school gym saw a short play on the relevant subject-matter
performed by the students of class 5 b. The performance was followed by a
PowerPoint presentation on counteracting violence. Moreover, the results of
both competitions were announced and the authors of the prizewinning works were
awarded. All those participating in the event also had the opportunity to taste
some healthy fruit- and vegetables-based food.
