Dear friends and colleagues,

We want to take this opportunity to thank you for your hard work and dedication to students and education in general.  The work you do is of great consequence and also is very demanding!  

We hope that you enjoy a well deserved rest and return to school in the new year ready to continue the good work you do!

We wish you all the best at this festive time of the year. 

Kind regards,
Michele and Mary

  

Health & Wellness

Our winter break will soon be here.

  We will have opportunities for a well-deserved rest, to reconnect with family and friends, travel, have outdoor adventures, read a book, and generally do just what we want!

Wintertime can also be a difficult time of year.  Many of us are affected by shorter daylight hours as well as often being more homebound.  

Please consider reading the article from

Mental Health Professionals - Support Resources for Family Members

for information about Seasonal Affective Disorder and what you can do about it.
