Mrs. Lank, School Counsellor
Dear families and students ,
Due to the recent extended closure of our school, this site was created with you in mind. As we all adjust to the extended time away from school amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, I want to assure you that I continue to dedicate my time to serving your family, and providing school counselling services for your family/child. I recognize that this may be a stressful time for many families and I would like to provide access to counselling support.
Right now, it is crucial that we all make sure we are doing everything we can to take care of ourselves and each other.
On this site you will find lessons, activities and resources for students and families to explore together, ways for students and parents to communicate and process their feelings or whatever needs they may have (social-emotional, calming, etc.), and hopefully some 'feel good' content as well. This is something that will grow and change over time so if there is something you need that I haven't included yet, please let me know. You can contact me if I can be of support in any way or for simply a chat or google meet. kalank@edu.pe.ca
