Honouring Special Days

By Lisa Braun

These beautiful handcrafted spectacles were done in honour of a special day in Maddie's class, called Day 100. They celebrate it because the children have completed 100 days of full-time school in Hepburn. And they also received stickers which said "100 days smarter!" Check out the picture closely and you'll see it. Love it.



Maddie was super pumped about this day.

I was wondering this morning - What if we threw a party called "Day 221"? Because today is 221 days since first year arrival. 223 d if you are an upperclassmen, and 228 d if you were at student leadership week. (If my math is correct, feel free to correct me). It will be 224 days on commencement.

What would it look like for you if you considered how you have grown and changed in the past 221 days?

I have been blessed to see people grow in
wisdom
reflection
critical thinking skills
tears
compassion
depth
self-awareness
and more....


I have been blessed to see people change in
knowledge
character
relationships
skills
attitude
heart
leadership
service
and more......

How about you? What have you seen? In your life and in those around you?

Day 221. It's a good one.
