Pathways - Brooks

This past Saturday marked the end of our Spring Digital Skills Level 1 & 2 classes, and what a term it has been!

To every student who walked through our doors this season, thank you. You showed up, you put in the work, and you walked away with skills that will genuinely make everyday life a little easier.

A special thank you to everyone who made this term possible, and to Jahangir for capturing some wonderful moments from the final class!

Keep an eye out for our upcoming programs. We hope to see your smiling faces back with us soon!

Just a heads up that Pathways programming will be taking a break in July and August. We'll be back in September with new learning opportunities, so check back then!

And the good news? Our free EAL and Literacy tutoring runs all year long. If you're interested, you'll need to apply to get started. Send us a message or email at [email protected] or give us a call at (403) 362-1685 and we'll walk you through it.

Also, keep an eye on our pinned posts here on Facebook for upcoming classes, events, and announcements. Those who are interested in volunteering are also welcome to reach out!

Our programs are beginning to wind-down for the summer, but now is the perfect time to be added to our wait-lists for the Fall. If you're interested in registering for classes in September, please email [email protected] to learn more and/or to add your name!

A little while back our English for Everyday Life (EFEL) learners crossed their finish line, and just recently our Math for Everyday Life (MFEL) learners did the same!

Each group had their own journey with different challenges and different goals, but the same incredible dedication. Life doesn't stop when you're studying. There are jobs, families, appointments and tough days, and they kept showing up through all of it.

That kind of commitment means everything to us and we are so grateful to witness it.

Congratulations to both groups, we are so proud of each and every one of you!

Something we notice at Pathways is that people come for the learning, but they stay for the community.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we want to remind you that looking after yourself looks different for everyone. For some, it is finally getting back into a classroom. For others, it is a good conversation over coffee, a volunteer who shows up week after week, or just knowing the campus gym is there when you need to move your body.

To our volunteers, thank you. You have your own jobs, your own families, your own busy lives, and yet you still choose to give your time to sit with someone, help them find their words, and remind them that they are capable. That is not a small thing. We see you, and we are so grateful.
However you need to show up, we are glad you are here.

Could you use a little extra support with the Foundational Math Skills required to make sense of Bills, Budgets and $ Basics? It's not too late to register!

Our May schedule has arrived, highlighting our new ‘Math Skills For Everyday Life”. Please contact us to learn more information and to register.

A HUGE congratulations to our Redi Enterprises Society learners who completed their Skills for Learning class this past Monday! 🎉

This year marked the very first time Pathways offered “The Best Me That I Can Be” learning experience—and we have a feeling it won’t be the last.

A special thank you to Mrs. Lauber for ALWAYS going the extra mile to support and inspire our learners—and for her thoughtful idea to grow plants as a class.
It was the perfect visual reminder that everyone grows (and blooms) at their own pace. 🌸

Were YOU part of our very first “The Best Me That I Can Be” class? We’d love to hear—what was YOUR favourite part?
