On February 18th, CtK will be participating in their first Inside Ride event in a huge effort to raise money for Childhood Cancer Research. This event will be followed by an afternoon of games in support of a CtK student who is currently undergoing cancer treatment. For all those wishing to donate to either cause, they may do so by sponsoring a student for the event. Students will be coming around canvassing for donations this week and early next week.
Donations to the Inside Ride and support for this member of our CtK family can be made by cash or cheque (made payable to CtK).

 St-Donat trip!By Ms. M. O'Brien
2010-02-08
At the end of January, 18 students from the French program packed their bags to spend 4 days in St-Donat, Quebec. This beautiful town in the Laurentians proved to be a great setting to not only enjoy and have fun, but to learn a few things too. The students participated in an amazing cultural exchange, trading in their everyday English conversation for games and activities completely in French. From downhill skiing and snowshoeing to recording music and exploring the village, these students had an incredible time immersed in French culture. Each night students enjoyed a different show by the talented staff of the Perspectives team, who not only put on a magic show and a concert, but taught students to cross-country ski and juggle. Another big thank you to the Perpectives team for their commitment and enthusiasm, we’re certain to see a little bit of St-Donat around CtK now! |

 Canadian Food for Children OrganizationBy The Social Justice Committee
2010-01-07
During the month of January, the Social Justice Committee is organizing a sock and mitten tree to benefit the Canadian Food for Children organization. This group is lead by Dr. Simone, who was a wealthy doctor before he donated all his money to charities such as World Vision. He then began to engage himself in social justice work. This Catholic organization oversees the distribution of foods and other goods to countries all over the world. Join us in donating socks and mittens to warm someone’s winter. Gently used coats will also be accepted. Please drop off these items on or under the tree in the CtK library. We have already collected a garbage bag full of donations that were gratefully received and we hope to be able to donate more. Although Christmas has past, Canada’s harsh winter is to last! Every day is a day to think of others. Thank you for your continued support! |

 safeTALKBy Mr. DeSantis
2009-12-07
On October 6th, as part of our School Improvement Plan, 20 Christ the King staff and 3 students participated in safeTALK Training. safeTALK is a three hour training that prepares anyone over the age of 15 to identify persons with thoughts of suicide and connects them to suicide first aid resources. It is believed that most people with thoughts of suicide invite help to stay safe. Alert helpers know how to use these opportunities to support that desire for safety. Those who completed the training received a sticker to identify them as someone youth can talk to if they are having thoughts of suicide.
CtK hopes to get more staff and students trained in the near future. For information on safeTALK and other trainings provided by Living Works, please visit the website http://www.livingworks.net/LW_Prgrms.php
CtK would like to thank H.E.A.L., the Georgetown Suicide Prevention Group, for providing the trainer and resources. |
