Dear PRPS families,
Thank you so much to those families that sent in baked goods for our Halloween Bake Sale. We had so many treats we had to extend the sale to the next day! Thank you to everyone that brought in money to purchase the treats! We made over $700. Half of the money raised is going to go to The Make A Wish Foundation. The other half is going to fund future Students' Council activities for the school.
Your PRPS Students' Council
Students' Council has decided to create a Mental Health Bulletin Board with rotating information for students about Mental Health. On November 5th, Peter Bearse from KFL&A Public Health will be meeting with student members of the mental health committee to help them plan their bulletin board.
Nurse Bearse will lead them through a discussion of the different ways that people can support their mental health using our “Fuel, Chill, Chat, Play” model.
- fuel: ideas and resources for healthy eating
- chill: importance of relaxation/ activities to de-stress and sleep
- chat: connecting with friends and family, talking about how we are feeling.
- Play: importance of physical activity
He will also lead a discussion about the circle of supports for students in the school: who they can connect with if they need to talk about anything, as well as mental health supports offered through resources like Kids help phone, One Stop Talk and Maltby.
We are looking forward to this presentation and the upcoming bulletin board create by our Students' Council!
