CEMH will be hosting this final Parenting in the Pandemic webinar on April 27, 2021 from 7pm-8pm
Fostering Resilience & Supporting Our Kids During Challenging Times
From the outset, the COVID-19 Pandemic has had a tremendous impact on all aspects of our lives. Faced with the important challenges brought on by the pandemic, we have been required to adjust and adapt in all aspects of our lives. The impact that this has had on our children and our families has been particularly challenging.
This webinar will focus on the concrete ways that strengthening our relationships with our children can build resilience and hope as well as specific strategies to help our children (and ourselves) cope with the many changes we have been facing.

EMSB Wellness Contest: Upload Your Special Moments and Be Eligible for Prizes !
By: EMSB Communication
As an incredibly challenging school year slowly comes to an end, the EMSB is planning to celebrate the resilience of our students, staff and families in a fun and unique way. Partnering with The Directors Showband and their team of professional videographers, The Directors will craft an original song that will celebrate wellness, resilience and perseverance. Accompanying the song will be a professionally shot and edited music video starring our students, staff and families. From a family birthday to children playing the park, the EMSB is asking our community to upload their special moments to: http://www.emsb.qc.ca/wellness until May 31.
Beginning on June 1, the public will then be able to vote on their favourite videos for inclusion in the music video. Capping off the campaign will be a special video launch on the first day of school where The Directors will perform the song live in a school yard.
