Alberta Health Services Dietitians are providing a free online workshop: SET the Table for Success! Support Positive Mealtimes.
Whether food is provided by your child care or by the families, all ELCC settings can create environments that support healthy eating habits. Healthy eating is more than the foods you eat - it's also about where, when, why, and how you eat. Join the online workshop to:
Explore how mealtimes can enrich children's social connections, learning and health.
Share practical ideas to support positive mealtime experiences.
Find resource and information to share with families.
Join us for ONE of these ZOOM sessions from 7:00-8:30:
Monday, February 3rd
Tuesday, February 11th
This session is eligible for Release Time Funding. Certificate of Attendance will be provided to attendees.

Fourth Week of Advent
1 John 4:9-16 - "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them."
Merry Christmas from the staff of Holy Cross!
Courage with Mrs. Lanceleve handed out a small gift to all the kids at Holy Cross this afternoon. We would like to thank Imperial Oil and the Mental Health Matters Grant for providing the funding for these small gifts. Each student will receive a candy cane pen and a message about candy canes and how they represent Jesus.
Christmas Break is almost here.
Our Wellness Warriors have been hard at work making cards for the local Food Bank to include with their Christmas hampers. It was important to these leadership students to spread kindness and joy to other families during the holiday season. Thanks to Imperial Oil and their continued support of Mental Health initiatives in our school we were able to come together to create magical moments for our students.
