St. Catherine of Siena Catholic School Empowerment Club Promotes Student Well‑Being

Members of the Empowerment Club at St. Catherine of Siena Catholic School have been actively supporting student mental health by sharing everyday classroom practices from School Mental Health Ontario. These strategies include calming techniques such as tense‑and‑relax exercises to relieve tension and support self-regulation, and four‑finger affirmations to promote a growth mindset, self-regulation and resiliency. Throughout the year, students have also designed and displayed posters around the school to encourage mental wellness and self‑care.
