SHINE Beyond Limits - August Newsletter


Dear SHINE Family,

Each day brought its own unique magic, creating a tapestry of experiences that truly embodied the spirit of SHINE

August was a whirlwind of joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories:

  • Sip, Slip & SLIME!: A wet and slimy day full of smiles and good times.

  • Outdoor Family Swim at Redwater Pool: Big splashes, diving board stunts and waves of happiness.

  • Park, Popsicles, and Playdough and POUND: A high-energy day of fun under the sun, complete with refreshing treats and endless play. 🍦🌳

  • SHINE's Day Out at the Edmonton Valley Zoo: A wild adventure where we met some of the planet's most incredible creatures. 🦁🦓

A Summer to Remember & A Fall to Look Forward To!

This summer was truly one for the books! As we prepare for the fall and the upcoming school year, we're hard at work adjusting schedules to cater to everyone's needs. We're also gearing up for the vibrant hues and fresh starts that September promises.


A heartfelt THANK YOU to Carla and Steve, for their incredible creativity and dedication. Your innovative contributions have made a world of difference at SHINE.


As we wave goodbye to summer and embrace the vibrant hues of fall, we're filled with excitement for the fresh start it promises. We can't wait to see you at our "Meet Your Community" events throughout September.


Here's to another year of connection, commitment, learning, shared joy, and boundless fun. Let's continue to SHINE together! ☀️
