This week we had a visit from Naomi and Ava Ropp from @k2k_productions, who came to drop off a wonderful donation – school snacks for our children and youth they collected over two weeks this month!
K2K is a new youth theatre company in Stratford helping students discover who they are, …their purpose, and where they fit in. What we love is seeing them teach kids that caring for others is part of finding your purpose. They spent December collecting applesauce, granola bars, cookies and juice boxes – all the things that make such a difference in a child's day.
There's something so special about young people stepping up to support other young people in our community. These snacks reminders that someone cares.
A big, big thank you to everyone at K2K Productions for thinking of our children and youth. Those snacks are going to brighten a lot of days ahead! 💚

Today is Anti-Bullying Day across Canada, and it's a reminder that every child deserves to feel safe and valued. 💙 We see the lasting impact bullying can have on young people – but we also see their incredible resilience when they have support around them.
Bullying changes how kids… see themselves and their place in the world. When children feel isolated or afraid, it affects everything – their friendships, their learning, even how they show up at home. But when they know there are trusted adults ready to listen and help, everything shifts.
If you know a young person who's struggling, remind them that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. We can build communities where every child feels like they belong.
