If you’re aged between 14-16 years old, join us at the Wellness Centre at Jeffery Hale for five weeks this summer for fun workshops focusing on photography and creative writing in collaboration with LOVE (Québec).
Develop new photography skills during the photography workshops! LOVE will bring semi-professional cameras and teach participants how to use them through various kinds of photography (portraiture, close up, black and white, etc.).
The creative writing and group discussion workshops will highlight various social topics such as diversity and inclusion, social standards and media safety (to name a few!) with the intention of reflecting on how these social aspects affect the participants, and their peers, on a daily basis.
There will also be time for sharing personal stories and developing active listening skills during these workshops.
Registration required. Participants are requested to attend all five sessions.

Jog Your Mind is a series of workshops designed for individuals aged 50 and over experiencing normal intellectual aging. This innovative program aims to keep your memory in shape. Tips, advice, and exercises are provided at each session based on the day’s theme.
In addition to receiving material during the sessions, participants also have the opportunity to exercise their cognitive functions at home with a 300-page activity workbook.
