Valhallan ESports Training, are proud to say that we are the first ones in Western Canada to bring the world of structured youth e-sports training into our community. Esports have emerged as one of the most powerful avenues for skill development, teamwork, and personal growth among students. Being the first ones to profess this in our community, we are dedicated to providing a structured and educational platform for students to not only enhance their gaming abilities but also develop essential life skills.
Our week-long camps include 15 hours of instruction from experienced coaches. Each day, players will learn important in-game skills to improve and level up their play while also learning teamwork, communication, and building confidence - all through fun gaming activities and competitions. This Spring Break, we are going to be running 2 camps:
Here's some more info on our Spring Camps --> https://arenas.valhallan.com/vancouver-bc-ca/events/#events-section Hi families, our names are Molly Brittain and Callia Enderton. We are 13 years old and currently attend Prince of Wales Secondary School and Kitsilano Secondary School. (We are alumni of Tennyson)
Over spring break we will be running a four day, half day camp from March 26th to 29th at Callia’s house in Kitsilano. This camp is for kids ages 4-9 and it will be a blast! We will play games, go on walks, there will be fun themes and so much more! We have limited space so please contact us as soon as possible if you are interested. The cost is $80 per kid per day including lunch and they can participate for 1 to 4 of the days. Currently we are trying to raise money so that we can participate in a 10 day community service program through an organization called Global Leadership Adventures: https://www.experiencegla.com/ All of the money from this camp will be going towards that adventure. If you have any question please feel free to reach out at mollybrittain2010@gmail.com or callia.enderton@icloud.com Callia is also available to look after children in the first week of spring break as well.

This guide for parents outlines how we can work together to ensure our children are part of a safe and respectful school community. We can achieve this by:
• helping our children recognize when they are experiencing or participating in bullying, • taking steps to end bullying by working with staff at schools and representatives of community-based organizations and • improving our school’s culture so that every student feels a sense of security, belonging and well-being. Read the guide, here. The ministry, in partnership with adolescent Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Hayley Watson - Open Parachute, is hosting free virtual sessions on youth substance use for parents/guardians, caregivers and caring adults.
