International Day of Tolerance: November 16, 2016
Tomorrow, November 16, is the International Day of Tolerance
The International Day for Tolerance is an annual observance declared by UNESCO in 1995 to generate public awareness of the dangers of intolerance. It is observed every year on November 16th.
In conjunction with this event, we have organized a scavenger hunt with flyers throughout the school building with videos and information about other cultures. Kids can scan the QR Codes and then enter information on a Google Form to enter a raffle. Submissions accepted through Nov 22.
In addition, students are invited to submit a brief video (30-60 seconds) in which they talk about their culture and traditions. We'll put all the videos together to create a film that tells these stories (use the link below to submit a link to your video).
Looking forward to this celebration of tolerance and diversity!
