Winter Walk to School Day 2023

 

WWD23 Poster

 

The journey outside is a safe and healthy choice for students and parents. Join the walk this February 1 and provide your kids with the jumpstart they need to perform better in the classroom! Let’s encourage, educate, and learn together!

All students can participate in Winter Walk Day! Bussed students walk to their bus stop. Remote learners can walk from home. Families who need to drive can park five minutes away and walk the rest of the way (find your Drive to 5 Maps here: https://www.stswr.ca/walkzone/maps/).

Walking outside in cold air can reduce stress, increase serotonin (the happiness hormone), and even though the action may be slower, walking in snow leads to greater heart conditioning and increased endurance over time.

Best regards.

“Share the Warmth” Winter Wear and Sock Drive

From February 1st-14th, St Mark will be running a “Share the Warmth” Winter Wear and Sock Drive to help fill the needs of the KW Out of the Cold Program.  We will accept donations of adult sweaters, winter coats, winter accessories such as scarves, hats and gloves, as well as new socks for adults.  If you can help out, please send these donations to school with your child(ren), and they can drop them off at the Library Learning Commons.  If you have any question, please contact Ms Najjar at julie.najjar@wcdsb.ca.  Thank you in advance for your donations of these much-needed items.
