Wellness Day - 10/23
What brings WELLNESS to your mind, body and soul? A hike on a beautiful trail, yoga and mediation, a good movie with a bowl of buttery popcorn, writing in your journal, family time? Whatever it may be, you will have an opportunity to have a DAY OF WELLNESS on Monday, October 23.
We are asking all students and staff to 'snap a selfie' of something you did during your wellness day, print it off, and bring it to school by Wednesday, October 25. Don't have a printer? You can email your photo to your classroom teacher too! These photos will then be displayed on a "Wellness board" in our hallway for all to see.
Enjoy YOUR wellness day!
