Let's start the week with an attitude of gratitude. 🫶

The more we pause to appreciate what we have, the more we open ourselves to abundance. Gratitude isn’t just a feeling—it’s a powerful mindset that transforms how we see the world and how the world responds to us.

🧡 For the past few weeks our LINC students have been learning about Orange Shirt Day. They read the book "The Orange Shirt Story" by Phyllis Webstad, and presented their work in book club groups yesterday to honour the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.🤝
At MNLC, we honour Indigenous resilience and commit to learning, supporting Indigenous-led initiatives, and building a future of truth, respect, and equity.

🤝 Join us in wearing orange, learning, and walking together on the path of reconciliation.
