Hello!

During times of dramatic change or stress social emotional learning and practices become increasingly important.  I have compiled a new page on this blog that has some online movement and mindfulness based practices that children and families can practice together! Have a look using the menu tab located above. Enjoy some of these fun and relaxing activities that you and your family can do together on a daily basis to help with these challenging times.

I am also attaching  a family challenge that can help promote social emotional learning.  Who in your family can complete their BINGO board first??  Will the first person to complete it get to choose a fun  activity for the whole family?!?

We Gotchu!

With so much changing in our worlds there are a lot of resources out there to support you and your family. In fact there can be so many different resources in different places that we don’t know where to start! The SFU Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue has created a website that is intended to serve as a hub for these resources, all located in one place.

Here you will find resources related to income, physical and mental health, housing, school, food, and mobility. All are linked to the government and/or organization in our community that is there to help you and your family navigate these challenging times.

Welcome to my blog! In these unique times we are all adjusting to our new circumstances .  It is my sincere hope that weekly updates to this site will provide all families in our community with resources and support as we all navigate this change. Please explore the menu sections above for these updates.

Remaining physically healthy during this global health crisis is our collective goal.  However, maintaining our mental health is equally important and challenging.  If you would like to book a time to discuss any challenges your family might be experiencing or to book a session please contact me at scott.anderson@burnabyschools.ca.
