Last night, the universities of Guelph (Meg K.), Windsor (Drew F.) and Western (Melissa B.) visited CKSS to host a skills clinic for the senior girls’ volleyball teams from CKSS, JMSS, and UCC. Athletes worked on advanced attacking variations, techniques for playing balls off the floor, and high-ball setting. We’re grateful for opportunities that bring our community together to help build strong, confident female athletes. A big thank you to all the coaches who attended and offered kind, supportive feedback. It was an amazing experience—we had a blast!

• Most used and preferred by students
• Helps reduce reliance on shared devices and cell phones
✅ Bonus: Tax receipts for donations over $25.00 will be issued.
• This pilot project will demonstrate how we can work together to support items that fall outside Ministry funding but make daily student life better.
