香蕉视频直播淢any of you witnessed a police presence at Watson Road this morning. I can香蕉视频直播檛 share all the details but it was definitely a case of one young student bragging to another young student about violent behaviour.香蕉视频直播

The email went on to say that the incident offered a great opportunity to talk to children about the problems with bragging, or joking with other students about weapons and violence.

While the missive was aimed at quelling concerns some felt more arise.

Central Okanagan School District superintendent Kevin Kardaal said that shouldn香蕉视频直播檛 be the case.

The situaton, he explained, started with a conversation between two primary age students. One of those students conveyed what was said to a parent and that prompted the parent to call the police. Kardaal wouldn香蕉视频直播檛 share what was said but noted that there was no real threat to safety.

The parent didn香蕉视频直播檛 call the school first, opting to go to police and Kardaal said that香蕉视频直播檚 fine.
