Aaaaaand that's a wrap for School's Out Summer Camp 2025! Our camp was jam packed with all sorts of adventurous and creative activities, while listening to LOTS of Kpop Demon Hunters music. We got to touch plenty of grass (and water and trees), challenge each other scientifically and competetively, express our creative selves through the messy mediums of paint, slime, and polymer clay, and got to try a variety of new experiences, like being buried in sand or trying the wooden roller coaster for the first time!

None of this would have been possible without the generous support of our funders who also dropped by for a visit during our first cohort! Many others have joined together and had a hand in making this summer camp our best one yet, so I'd like to give shout-outs to:

⭐️ for their Mental Health and Safer Minds curriculum, which helped our kids learn skills for resilience in engaging ways
⭐️Sharlene from for familiarizing our students with the outdoor world and the creatures they share space with
⭐️ Richmond for their consideration and hospitality when we came to visit the store for lunch
⭐️ for their generous donation of dodgeballs, allowing us to continue our usual bouts of incredibly competitive dodgeball between students and leaders
⭐️The parents and families of our School's Out kids, for joining us for a meal and experiencing the intensity of School's Out dodgeball!

Thank you to everyone for being part of the School's Out Summer experience - here's to looking forward to a fantastic school year!

Term 3 was filled with guests, new lessons, novel experiences, and more! Check out our post to see the behind the scenes from our "The Day in A Life of a School's Out Student" video. Special thanks to program and their outreach workers, Gabriel Narciso and Alisha Weng, for supporting.

This term we featured a few social-emotional workshops from ShEvalesco's Safe Minds curriculum. A huge shout out to the for their support and teachings! Throughout the term, we learned about Boundaries and Consent and Care in Communication.

We reinvited two classic School's Out guests: Mike Larson from Mike's Critters to introduce various animal species, and Sharlene from SPEC's School Gardens Program to teach our students how to care for our garden space.

A special thank you to for continuing to support this program! We are so excited to see everyone again in the Summer!

Let's learn about the Mental Life Area together with Part 2 of our 5 Life Areas Education Post series.

We may eat a balanced diet, get a good amount of sleep, and even exercise on a regular basis, but what happens when the stress of every day life gets to us? Even if we take care of our physical health, we still need to do things for our mental health. Our minds and our emotional states are important for our overall wellness. If you're feeling overwhelmed by what you can do, take a read through this post or reach out to us for resources and support.

What are your favourite habits around taking care of your mental health? Share them with us in the comments! Who knows, you might get a new idea from others of something you can do to take care of your mental health ☺️
