Our students recently stepped outside the classroom for a leadership-focused retreat at Tawingo Outdoor Centre, designed to deepen their leadership skills, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and explore what it means to belong and help others belong.
Students participated in team-building and problem-solving activities that challenged them to communicate, collaborate, build trust, and recognize the unique contributions each person brings to a team.
A recurring theme = impact of small things.
Leadership doesn’t always mean changing the world in a big way. It can look like small, intentional acts of kindness, taking the time to make a difference, and recognizing how those choices can ripple outward to impact others. And we do these things because we know how deeply God loves us.
Perhaps one of the best reflections of this came from those around our King’s students. Tawingo staff, bus drivers, and King’s staff repeatedly commented on the kindness and engagement that they witnessed from our students throughout the retreat.
A special thank you as well to Ms. Nolan, Ms. Brodie and Mr. Kagan who thoughtfully planned, organized, supervised, encouraged, and invested in our students throughout the retreat.
