As a CYC who loves carpets & cozy chairs I have had to reimagine how I use my space during Covid. By turning off the lights, adding lamps & playing soft music we can connect with our other senses. How have you been able to make your space inviting? Halton Catholic DSB Glenda Brown (she/her)🌈 HCDSB_CYCs

Halton Catholic DSB - you just heard a young woman publicly declare her place in the 2SLBGTQ+ community. She has heard hateful comments from the adults surrounding her for weeks on end. She is strong. She is amazing. I support her and see her. ❤️🌈 #FlyTheFlag

Guardian Angels we are a safe space. Our doors are always open for all of God’s children. Treating everyone with kindness, dignity, equity and respect is who we are. Halton Catholic DSB

When I became a CYC, I made the commitment to myself to treat all students that came my way as if they were my own children. To love, support & guide them unconditionally. My door & arms are open to you as an advocate and safe space. I am here. 🌈 HCDSB_CYCs Guardian Angels

We are all wonderfully made. We all belong. Our doors are always open as safe spaces for all! 🥰🌈 Glenda Brown (she/her)🌈 #HCDSBRainbowDay #Pride2021 youtu.be/SIdLgyuo4ys

Students loved our visualization activity to kick off week 2 of take a minute! They identified what space worked best for them and found a new way to help calm their bodies Kate Pipe @StScholStorm

Today we took a walk to the nearby pond and focused on mindful listening. Rather than the thoughts running through our mind, we focused on the God-given gifts surrounding us. Kate Pipe #takeaminute #mentalhealthmatters @StScholStorm
