Mental Health Tip Our current situation can be very difficult and affect our mental health. We all need to take some time to work on our own mental well being. Please take a look a this exercise from The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Depression by William J. Knaus, EdD and consider trying it out for yourself: “At the end of each day, write down three things that happened for which you can be genuinely grateful. These can be tiny, almost insignificant events. For example, the sunrise, the sunset, the taste of honey, and the smell of baking bread may all be experiences that can evoke a sense of gratitude. Seeking experiences to feel grateful for can help counteract unhealthy, doomsday-type depressive thoughts.” King City SS e-Newsletter 2001 King Road, King City, ON L7B 1K2 April 17, 2020 Contact Us Phone 905.833.5332 Extensions Reception 150 Attendance 158 Guidance 106 Busing 152 [email protected] Online School website Administration Principal Joe D'Amico Vice Principals Pina Viscomi (A-K) Tim Wesson (L-Z) School Council Luisa Gale Harpal Panesar Superintendent Neil Gunathunge Trustee Bob McRoberts King Township: Resources for People with Disabilities The Township of King has put together a list of many resources that are available for people with disabilities during the Covid-19 pandemic.
