We are thrilled to announce that King George School will be hosting its eighth annual Wellness Day on Friday, May 30, 2025! This much-anticipated event is designed to empower our students with the tools, knowledge, and inspiration to lead active, healthy, and balanced lives. From mindfulness to movement, nutrition to stress management, Wellness Day is all about helping young minds and bodies thrive.
We are looking for volunteers who can share their skills and expertise with our students. Your involvement will help shape a meaningful and enriching experience, making a lasting impact on our school community.
What to Expect
Wellness Day will be packed with interactive and engaging sessions tailored to different age groups for our students in Kindergarten to grade 5.
The event will kick off with an inspiring keynote speaker, followed by three to four dynamic 45-minute sessions (per grade), where students will explore different aspects of well-being. We'll even squeeze in a short nutrition break to keep everyone energized!
