Thank you Max 🏔 for inspiring us to get outside and connecting this morning’s workout to #BellLetsTalkDay raising awareness about mental health. Exercising outside with friends/colleagues & students boosts my mental health! #outdoorseveryday #communityfirst #lcsthrives

A beautiful afternoon Lakefield College working on some Outdoors Every Day asynchronous learning with our own kids. If you get the chance to try flying a kite wherever you are in the world, it is well worth the effort! #LearningwithLakefieldRemotely #OutdoorsEveryDay
