What is ?

Turn Off the Violence is a public awareness campaign that serves to educate about the impact of violence in our community and challenge us to examine how we can begin to turn off the violence in our lives!
Purpose of TOTV:

  • Raise awareness about violence in a learning environment
  • Provide alternatives to violence for students and teachers
  • Encourage children to provide non-violent solutions to address violence in their own lives, their school, and their communities
  • Promote school wide participation in recognising various forms of violence
