A very special congratulations to Ami and Amanda for 5 years with Bee Me Kidz 💛

Over the past five years, they’ve both brought patience, kindness, leadership and so much care to our organization.

The impact they’ve had on children, families, teammates and communities is felt in ways big and small, and we’re so grateful for everything you continue to give.

Thank you Amanda and Ami for being such an important part of Bee Me Kidz 🐝

Thank you, Government of New Brunswick 💛

We are so grateful for the funding you committed to Bee Me Kidz and for the opportunity to welcome members of government to see our program, our people and our mission in action.

From social and emotional learning to nutrition, parent education and family support, this funding helps us continue doing what matters most: supporting children and families in the communities we call home.

A big thank you to the Government of New Brunswick for your continued support.

Our findings show that Bee Me Kidz is having a transformational impact 💛

As Dr. Wendy Stewart, NB Pediatric Neurologist and Bee Me Kidz Board Member, is finding in her research, the program is helping create positive change in parenting practices, family relationships and social cohesion, with ripple effects that extend far beyond the program itself.

That kind of impact speaks to what Bee Me Kidz has always been built around: supporting children, strengthening families and creating meaningful connections within the community.
Because when support reaches beyond the child and into the family as a whole, the results can be powerful, lasting and deeply meaningful 🐝

This special Leaderz photobooth gave our Grade 5 students a chance to reflect on the year and share some of those moments with their educators 💛

It was a meaningful way to look back on how much they have learned, how much they have grown, and the relationships that helped shape that journey along the way.

Moments like this are such an important part of social and emotional learning. They help children build self-awareness, express appreciation, and recognize the people who have supported them throughout the year.

A beautiful way to celebrate growth, connection and all that this year has meant 🐝

Did you know that every Saturday at Bee Me Kidz has its own theme? 💛

A few weeks ago, the theme was Minecraft Day… as you can probably tell from Abby and Lauren’s shirts 😊

Themed Saturdays are a fun way to make learning feel exciting and familiar for children, but they also support something deeper. Through shared themes and activities, children have opportunities to connect with others, practice communication, work together and express themselves creatively.

And these are all important parts of social and emotional learning. They help children build confidence, strengthen relationships, develop empathy, and learn how to interact positively with the world around them.

It’s one more way Bee Me Kidz helps make Saturdays fun, meaningful and full of opportunities to grow 🐝
