✨Building Connections Across Grades✨
What began as a Grade 10 Personal Project has grown into a meaningful peer mentoring program at SJS! 💬🎲📚

Grade 11 student Lotus Lei launched the Peer Mentoring Club to build connections between MYP and DP students. With support from the #YouthSchoolGrant, she built the club from the ground-up—recruiting members, designing activities and creating a warm, welcoming space for students in Grade 6 and 7.

Meeting every Wednesday, the club has seen around 15-20 students each week. Activities have focused on games, academic support and peer counselling—building friendships and easing transitions in the most SJS way: through service and student leadership.
