Virtues Initiative
A Catholic Faith Community is rooted in a set of common beliefs which are inspire by life, mission and teachings of Jesus. As a Catholic Community we are called to learn, to grow and to become more like Jesus in the way we see and treat others. Our Catholic faith plays an important role in helping us shape schools that are safe, caring and inclusive.
Lester B. Pearson Catholic School will be introducing a new "Virtues Program" this year. This program is designed to help us nurture virtue and character development in the lives of our students. Each month, the entire school will focus on a different virtue. Classroom activities and school wide activities will all focus on the nurting of specific virtue.
We would appreciate your support in discussing these virtues with your child and encouraging behaviours that would demonstrate these virtues. Here is a list:
September FAITH | February RESPECT |
October EMPATHY | March KINDNESS |
November CONSCIENCE | April LOVE |
December HOPE | May ACCEPTANCE |
January SELF CONTROL | June FAIRNESS |
