Piece by PEACE (Anti-Bullying, Wellness) Assembly/Presentation
We believe that focusing on the negative will always produce more negative, even if your focus is in opposition. Therefore we choose to focus our energies on the positive side. Hence the name Piece by PEACE. Through storytelling, music, movement and interactive segments the POR AMOR team will explore with students the concept of being a Piece of Peace, by first looking within to cultivate inner peace through tools such as breathing, self-awareness & self-love. Our assembly then shifts from within to outside to support students in recognizing the influence their emotions, words and actions having on others around them. We challenge students to take responsibility for their energy and to give what they wish to receive. Together we explore the concept of self- expression and empower students to discover the endless possibilities of making positive choices.
