Wellness Corner
Hello! My name is Danielle Bussiere (the kids call me Miss. B), and in case we haven't met before, I am the Family Wellness Worker for Madonna and Holy Spirit Catholic Schools. I am here to support social and emotional well-being, which during a year like this one, we know is incredibly important! If you ever need to chat about you, your kiddo, or your family, please contact me by calling your school's main phone line or by emailing me at danielle.bussiere@eics.ab.ca. Elk Island Catholic Schools also has a page of Alberta Health Services, Government aid, and community resources that may assist you and your family during this time. https://www.eics.ab.ca/coronavirus-information-in-eics/parent-resources.
