Voting at Gateway

As part of the Self-Determination curriculum, we are learning about adult rights and responsibilities like voting in elections. Students created a voting booth, ballot box and ballot. We had classroom votes like choosing trips we would like to take into the community.

Students created a PowerPoint presentation about the elections and we practiced voting for a City Counsellor and School Trustees.
