In Social Studies, we have been learning about Citizenship and Government. As part of the unit this year, our class has been paying particular attention to the Ontario Provincial Elections. The class is participating in a program called Student Vote 2011. The program's purpose is to increase young people's awareness of the importance of voting and actively participating in a democracy.
For more information, parents and students can go to the Student Vote website
