Thank you so much to everyone who joined us today!

We had a wonderful Origami Workshop with our visiting Japanese students. 🇯🇵✨
A huge thank you to the students for generously sharing their time, skills, and culture with our community. Participants thoroughly enjoyed learning the art of origami and were delighted to take home their beautiful handmade bookmarks.
We are also pleased to share that 50% of the workshop profits will be donated to the Ellesmere College Equip Us Campaign.

Thank you for supporting this meaningful cultural exchange and fundraising event! 💙

Thank you for coming to our first Paint & Sip BYO on Friday! 🎨🍷
We had such a fun night! Sayoko Pettigrew guided everyone step-by-step through a beautiful watercolour painting of Ellesmere Lake. She shared techniques and skills that anyone could use, while also encouraging everyone to explore their own style with their choice of colours and subjects.
There was lots of laughter, creativity, and fun throughout the evening, and everyone went home with their own masterpiece! 🖼️✨
We would say it was a very successful night, and we are so grateful for all your support. This event would not have happened without you — thank you so much!
We can’t wait to do it again! 💕
