May is mental health awareness month at Champe and in order to create a welcoming community and protective space for students, Champe is hosting many different events throughout the month to help better students’ mental wellbeing. On the 1st of May during all lunches, students were given the opportunity to join the counselors in the courtyard for wellness wednesday. Students were given the chance to eat outside and enjoy the good sunny weather. Once they were done eating, students were allowed to play outdoor games like jumbo jenga as well. Counselors were also outside along with the students to supervise and in case students wanted to talk.
“I really liked spending my lunch time out in the sun,” junior Aniska Manojkumar said. “I would like to participate in more lunches like this one.”
