Season's Greetings from our Counselling Corner.

Dear Parents and Guardians, 

            We hope that the first term of your child’s academic year has been both academically and socially enriching. Also, thank you to everyone who has welcomed me to Mountain Meadows as this year’s practicum counsellor.

            For the December issue of our newsletter, David and I would like to focus on helping kids to foster their skills in empathic awareness. As a result, we are presenting the condensed version of the Random Acts of Kindness Advent Calendar. Here are some ideas:

1.     Feed the Birds

2.    Give a compliment to a friend

3.    Donate a book to a library

4.    Bring cookies to the police of fire station

5.    Bring supplies to the SPCA shelter

6.    Leave a happy note for someone to find

7.    And my personal favorite….make a friendship bracelet for a friend.

There are so many more ideas. We hope that you, as a parent community, will help your children foster their social and emotional growth by teaching them to think and care for others this Christmas.

                                                                        Happy Holidays!

                                                                        Counsellor David & Counsellor Clara
