Challenge Poverty Week 2024
During Challenge Poverty Week 2024, Primary 3 explored some big questions:
-
What does West Lothian do to help people in poverty?
-
What does Toronto PS do to help poverty?
-
What could Toronto PS do to help those in need?
Learners discussed the West Lothian food bank, our Toronto Boutique, free school meals and free after school clubs.
Primary 3 also had a visit from Mrs McDougall, our Family link Worker, who came and explained what she does in her job does to help.
For our school to provide further support to our families and community we identified a wide range of ideas, including creating a knitting or sewing club to make scarves and hats to keep families warm, having fruit bowls in classes, and much more!
We then made posters to express our thoughts and ideas.
