Thank you for this reminder.

"There is so much more to behaviour than most people think. Children don’t try to upset us, there is usually something behind it. They are communicating their need through behaviour. If we look behind the behaviour we can see a child who is doing the best they can."

Watch as the STARS, MOONS and SUNS walk the red carpet! Every camper was invited to walk the red carpet and put their best foot forward! ✨ We had so much fun celebrating our unique skills, gifts and talents all week long!

On Friday….

Our theme was: WALK THE RED CARPET…✨as your best self!

Our affirmations were:
🗣️ “I can shine bright for all to see!”
🗣️ “I am who I am, and that is MAGNIFICENT!”
🗣️ “I am perfect, just the way I am.”

We began our day with walking the red carpet and acting like fans & paparazzi for one another! 📸 It was fun to cheer on our friends and celebrate such a unique and inspiring week!

Everyone dressed up in whatever made them feel like their best self! We had artists, fashionistas, gamers, gymnasts….unicorn fairies…athletes…and more! 💖

Miss Rachael read a story called “That uh-oh feeling… A Story About Touch” with the students; which prepared them for their lesson on safe touch, unsafe touch and unwanted touch with Miss Alissa.

Students were already SO prepared for this conversation and content; it was amazing! Way to go parents and families. Miss Alissa provides training for students and teens on Body Safety. This is an empowering experience for youth.

After a pizza lunch, Miss Addy & Miss Ann gave students a volleyball demo! 🏐

We enjoyed lots of games, dance and free play time on Friday before we had the “1 Minute Talent Show” 🎤 🎳🏈💃🏼🕺🏼

We encouraged students to get creative and “SHOW OFF” something cool to their peers. We heard jokes, saw card collections, …beat-boxing…dancing, gymnastics acts and more! Almost every student participated in the show which makes us so proud. We encouraged them to stand out in their strengths and shine! Everyone has something to offer. 🪩

To end the day, we had a NEON GLOW DANCE PARTY! Our favorite way to end the week is dancing and having a party! 🎉 Kids had fun with temporary tattoos and glow-sticks.

There are yet MORE pictures and videos to come! Check the page this weekend for Talent Acts & Red Carpet arrivals! ✨
