2021-2022 Event Recap 🤍✨

With our last event of the term yesterday, we thought a walk down memory lane would be a good SISU send off 🦋

Thank you all for making our SISU 2021-2022 school year so special! From hiking and kayaking to yoga and dance classes to book club and trivia nights, we have had such a fun and meaningful year embracing movement and celebrating bravery, confidence, and resilience. Here's a look back at some of our favourite memories from this school year.

This Friday, March 25 via zoom!

Alongside the wellness peers, test your knowledge about topics related to s*xual health and s*xuality and increase your s*xual health literacy. Topics range from s*x education, pop culture, pleasure and much more. We want to work toward breaking down barriers to navigate conversation around s*xual health.
