First Night of the Year


It's September 3, 2019 and it is the first night in residence. Tonight is the first time many of the boys have spent the night away from home without a family member. We kept everyone busy after parents left. The boys got to know us (Tiffany, Mark and Stephanie) as well as started to get to know there peers. After dinner everyone went outside to socialize with the other students from Sagonaska. The boys played on the play structure, played basketball, played in the sand and on the swings. All the boys seemed to be having some fun. After playing outside for a while everyone came inside to shower, make phone calls and have a snack (ice cream with sprinkles and chocolate chips) before settling in for the night. There were a few teary phone calls home and all the boys were told that someone would be here for them all night and if they needed something to let us know.


Tomorrow the boys begin their journey and we will be here to help them succeed

Story Time During the last few months I have been reading to the boys a couple of nights a week. The boys are really enjoying story time...
