Our 1st ELC Wellness Fair takes place TODAY Wednesday May 29th! The ELC Wellness Club Committee has organized an amazing day of community partners who will be sharing their resources and supports. Aside from mental health agencies there will also be volunteer opportunities with agencies, as well as some cool prizes and freebies for students who participate. Our community partners will be present during the lunch hour near the front foyer. Students attending will receive a passport style card and have each community partner stamp their visit. A card with at least 10 different stamps will allow a student to participate in a draw for a self-care wellness basket. Draws to take place at the end of the day Wednesday. This is a great opportunity to win a free basket for yourself, or as a gift for someone else. Please see Carleen our Social Worker or Nurse Dana with any questions about our Wellness Fair.

The Junior Boys soccer team’s season came to an end on Monday afternoon with a narrow defeat to A.N. Myer. The boys played a competitive game, had some great chances and were unlucky to not get a result from the game. Your coaches want to thank you for all of your hard work and dedication this season. The future’s looking bright, boys!
Yesterday, the Senior Boys soccer team ended their season in the zone final with a heartbreaking loss against Centennial. The boys showed their class throughout both halves and were extremely unlucky as the game ended in a closely contested penalty shootout loss. Coaches Edwards, Shannon and Lafferty are very proud of all of your effort, boys. Thanks for a great season!
