HWDSB Third Annual
Social Justice Fair

The Third Annual Social Justice Fair will host over 35 NGOs (non-governmental organization) and HWDSB students from all grade levels. Students will be able to participate in various workshops provided by several NGOs, network with other students, develop an awareness of both global and local concerns, view the two award winning films, listen to music provided by local talent, and celebrate the amazing things that our Board is involved with.

Here are some final instructions and information for our upcoming event:
The event takes place at Liuna Station on April 15th from 10:00– 2:00
An overview of the day will be posted just outside the Ballroom.

· Workshops will run in the morning
· Presentations, music, films and awards will run in the afternoon
· Students should bring some paper and a pen or pencil.

Lunch
· Students and teachers should bring a litterless lunch as there is no off site
travel permitted.
· Water, Juice and pop will be available for $2.00
· Students may want to organize a healthy picnic, using locally produced foods to share with their group.
· Please try and avoid plastic water bottle bottles

This is an event where some HWDSB students will showcase their Projects and all students will take part in Workshops. Model behavior is expected as Media and Special Guests from around the city will be in attendance throughout the day. It is important that all students be exceptional ambassadors for the HWDSB.

We are also asking schools to bring gently used clothing (preferably hip hop style, and toiletries to go to the “Walk-In Closet” program. There will be boxes provided for you.


Thank-you so much for all of your dedication to students and to our global world. It will truly be an awesome day!!!!!
