I am thrilled to invite yourself and your students to our annual Peace Forum for high school students following our Peace Breakfast, an event hosted by the YMCA of Oakville on Wednesday November 20th from 10:30am-2pm.
The YMCA will be providing buses from each participating local high school to send students to learn more about Maggie Doyne and her story; how she turned her Passion to Action. Students will have the opportunity to engage with other youth in their community and participate in small workshops focusing on Health, Social Inclusion, Environment and Economic Empowerment in our venue at the Oakville Conference Centre.
I have attached a flyer to explain more about our Youth Forum and have also provided a brief timeline of the day below:
7:00 am – Annual Peace Breakfast; celebrating local peacemakers with keynote speaker, Maggie Doyne
9:30 am – Busses pick up from high schools
