We've been called to remove barriers that prevent our students from engaging with their learning. We will explore the cycle caused by labelling students, the impact of unconscious bias, and learn how to interrupt and address this cycle of oppression.
Explore the EOCCC resources highlighting lessons and strategies which nurture the giftedness and self-worth of students at all levels.
Supporting students in the understanding of how to build and share effective portfolios creates the opportunity for self-advocacy in the secondary and post-secondary classroom while building readiness to promote their skills in a competitive job market.
Our Catholic Faith is a full bodied experience. The stimulation of our senses provides memories of our experiences. A sight or sound can bring us back to the feelings of that moment. Explore ways to integrate these into your personal prayer forms and professional faith practice.

Care for God's Creation is one of the themes of Catholic Social Teaching. Biblically we have learned the metaphor of "You reap what you sow" (Galatian 6: 8-9). This applies both to the agrarian lifestyle but also to our morals and ethics. Pope Francis emphasizes this in Laudato Si. This is not only about the environment but it includes relationships as well.
Participate in an interactive "Breakfast With God" session which includes prayer, song, a story, and a craft, all centered around a Gospel message. You will be set to create and host your own event!
Learn how your school community can further celebrate student diversity and amplify student voice. Specific programs, clubs and committees will be explored including: Diverse Voices Committee, Student Council, Best Buddies Club, and the Grade 12 Equity and Social Justice (HSE4M) course.
Inspired by the wisdom of traditional iconography, the EOCCC icon cross reminds us that in times of real difficulty, Christ doesn't offer explanations, He simply offers himself. Gather around the cross with the artist to explore the spirituality and the disarming beauty at the heart of the icon cross.
