Feelings Art-Based Workshops:
The ALCDSB Social Work Team is offering “feelings” workshops for elementary school students entering Grades 5-6.
These workshops will be psychoeducational and are intended to teach students skills to manage their “big feelings” using art and other expressive activities. These workshops are not intended as therapy sessions; students needing individual attention will be referred to the appropriate services.

Anxiety Workshops:
Does stress make you feel panicky? Sick to your stomach? Overthink? Do you worry about what others think of you? Hold yourself back from trying new things?
If you’re entering Grades 7, 8 or 9 join our summer anxiety groups to learn more about anxiety, why it makes us feel so badly, and what we can do about it.
