MEET A LIFEGUARD PROGRAM JUNIORS & SENIORS

On Monday November 8th, Learning Space 3 Juniors and Learning Space 3 Seniors were involved in the Meet a Lifeguard Program. Both groups enjoyed the presentation and learnt a lot about water safety. We would like to thank Ramzi Hussaini who is the Project Coordinator – Diversity and Inclusion. He kept the students engaged as well as providing them with important information.

Next Monday November 15th, Learning Space 2 Juniors and Learning Space 3 Seniors will have their sessions with Ramzi.

 

 

 

We hope the students are enjoying these activities!!
