On September 12, 2018, the MDHS Wellness Team had their first meeting.

The Wellness Team is a club that focuses on the betterment of the academic, physical, and emotional wellness of students. The team also hopes to increase student involvement and engagement within the school.

The meeting started with introductions of both past and new members, and the adult facilitators. An overview of the club’s past activities was also discussed, including Wellness Week, working with GSA, and school surveys.

Future ideas were also brought up during the meeting. So far, peer tutoring, yoga, school club fairs, and dance fundraisers were the main ideas presented for the 2018/2019 school year.

If you have any other ideas you wish to contribute to the team or if you are interested in joining the team, please do not hesitate to talk to one of the members or the adult facilitators. The Wellness Team is always looking for and is open to extra help. You may contact 1choilau@hdsb.ca or talarowskic@hdsb.ca for more information, such as future meeting details.
