Omemee Students Attending Argos Huddle Against Bullying Game!
Scott Young Public School Students AttendingToronto Argos Game Day, Tuesday, June 19!
Tuesday, June 19, Scott Young Public School Students will attend one of the largest student gatherings ever at a sporting event in Toronto! Toronto Argonauts will welcome close to 30,000 students who will pack Rogers Centre for the team’s home pre-season game as part of an extraordinary year-end 'Field Trip' to celebrate student success.
The Argos' award-winning 'Huddle Up Bullying Prevention Program', presented by Tim Hortons, just completed its eleventh year, and is recognized as being among the premier in-school bullying education programs in the province.
'We are thrilled with the overwhelming support we’ve received for this initiative from the Ministry of Education, and the many school boards from around the GTA.'commented Jason Colero, Toronto Argonauts Director, Education Programs & The Argos Foundation, adding'We have reached out to over half a million students over the years with our many community programs, and we’re so excited that on June 19 we will be able to celebrate all of our successes and growth together.'
The game will provide students with an exciting and educational game day experience. Along with special student and community-focused presentations, specifically targeting bullying prevention and health and wellness, students will be treated to great football action, while learning about the dangers of bullying and benefits of physical activity through special videoboard messages and announcements. Following the game, students will be invited to take their 'Field Trip' onto the actual field at Rogers Centre where they will meet their Argonauts heroes as well as the Argos Cheerleaders during an Argonauts post-game tradition known as See You on the Field.
Scott Young Public School students have received free tickets to the game,the only fee being $15 to offset bussing costs.
