Happy New Year from Connections Place! 🎉

Eva’s goal for 2026 is to learn and be able to identify as many languages as possible. So far, she has 61 languages on her list! She is enrolled in a Polish Language Level 1 continuing studies course at the University of Victoria, starting later this month. We love seeing members pursue their education goals. Go Eva! 🇵🇱

The holiday season is a special time to slow down and come together. Our holiday party reminded us how meaningful it is to gather, share smiles, and enjoy simple moments! We got busy crafting, decorating gingerbread cookies, and enjoying cake and snacks.

Wishing you a safe, joyous, and festive holiday season🎄✨

Thank you to our colleagues at Mosaic Clubhouse for being such excellent hosts and sending us off with a wealth of knowledge, inspiring memories, and the reminder that we are part of a global community. We miss you already!

Colleague training at Mosaic Clubhouse has came to an end last Friday. We thoroughly enjoyed the company of Stiftelsen Fontänhuset, Örebro and Connections Place - Victoria. It's great to learn from Clubhouse colleagues from around the world. We wish them the very best on their action plans. 📄📝📌

Our first Clubhouse Wellness Day was a big hit!

Some of our activities included baking brownies and zucchini squares, making immunity drinks, playing music bingo, going for a long walk, puzzling, and creating a collective art project called “The Wellness Tree.”

Thank you to everyone who helped make this wonderful day possible 💚🌻
