As we head into summer, I would like to take a moment to thank you for your continued partnership in keeping our students healthy, safe, and thriving. Your support has been invaluable in fostering student wellbeing throughout the year.
Together, we navigated challenges, supported one another, and helped students grow, not only taller and stronger, but also more resilient and self-aware.
Over the past year, the Health Centre has supported students’ daily needs, managed chronic conditions and injuries, and provided care and reassurance when it was needed most. These experiences continue to strengthen the way we support our community.
Looking ahead, we are excited to welcome students back in September to our brand-new Health Centre, located in the Lower School expansion.
