March MMM Mindfulness Celebration

At AC Whelan, our Monthly Morning Meeting (MMM) Team brings our school community together each month to highlight a core value such as Friendship, Respect, Kindness, Growth Mindset, Compassion, and Mindfulness. Each month begins with a Zoom lesson shared with all classrooms to introduce the value and what it looks and sounds like in action. Throughout the month, staff members observe students who consistently model the look-fors and nominate them to be honored at our celebration.

Today, we proudly celebrated 31 outstanding students from Kindergarten through Grade 5 who were nominated by staff for demonstrating Mindfulness throughout our school community. These students showed the ability to pause and think before acting, stay calm in challenging moments, focus on the present, and make thoughtful choices that support their learning and relationships with others.

To honor their efforts, students participated in our Glowga Mindfulness Celebration in the gym, where they engaged in calming stretches, breathing exercises, and mindfulness activities together. This fun and relaxing experience reinforced the importance of slowing down, being aware of our thoughts and feelings, and taking care of both our minds and bodies.

Our Mindfulness Celebration highlighted what makes AC Whelan so special: students who take time to reflect, stay focused, and support a calm and positive learning environment for everyone.

We are so proud of our students for modeling mindfulness and for showing how thoughtful actions and calm choices help our school community thrive as Whelan Whales! 🐋💙
