Mental Wellness Fair

We will be hosting a Mental Health Wellness Fair this year, with increased numbers of community and government agencies. We will also have a question and answer session for parents with various service providers.

Update (June 18, 2018)

We held our second annual Mental Health and Wellness Fair on Wednesday April 25th. Again we had a great turn out for the event. We provided refreshments for all who came and were involved. We also launched the selling of our Mindfulness Meditation CD - created in our own in-house recording studio by our music teachers. These were sold that night and continue to be sold and used throughout our board, and are available to others for purchase.
