World Autism Day!

This year, we’re celebrating autism acceptance in a way that represents the diversity and uniqueness of every individual. Instead of just one color, we’re embracing them all!

📅 Event Date: April 2, 2025
👕 What to Do: Wear your favourite bright color from head to toe! Pick a color that represents you, your personality, or your connection to autism acceptance. If you already have a special shirt or something you connect with obviously feel free to wear that.

🎨 Why any colour?
Autism isn’t one-size-fits-all. So blue doesn't work for everyone. A variety of colours represent the wide range of abilities, challenges, and strengths of autistic individuals. Each color stands for uniqueness, inclusion, and acceptance—and blue still has its place for those who connect with it!

Join us in making this a bright, colorful day full of understanding, acceptance, and joy!

We were so busy with Trickster we didn't have time for the draw. I will do a double draw this week to make up for last week.

To our parents, thank you for your support in so many ways—volunteering, helping out, and encouraging your kids.

To our school council and to all of you who have ever contributed to our fundraisers—thank you! Your generosity and support make days like this possible. Without your efforts, we wouldn’t have the opportunity to bring such an incredible experience to our students.
