Human Library for Mental Health Awareness Week

The Learning Commons celebrated Mental Health Awareness Week by hosting a Human Library event for Ms. Lee's peer mentorship class.  Thank You to our Living Books who volunteered their time from CHEO, ROH, Youth Net, and the Ottawa Inuit Children's Centre and other walks of life!

The video below as created to commemorate the event.

BYOD Campaign brought to you by the Teen Tech Club

St. Joseph student, Wellington Sanipe, created a motion graphics video to promote the school wide use of personal devices for academic purposes.  Students voted to allocate funds from our Speak Up grant to create a naturescape wall in the Quiet Lab and to purchase two iPad Minis for student use in the L.C.
