Drop by the tennis courts outside Rotary Place any time between 12 pm and 2 pm to play a game of pickleball or tennis, or meet up with fellow Thunderwolves for a walk along the paths through the West Orillia Sports Complex.
Notes regarding pickleball/tennis: No experience required, we're all learning together! The courts can't be booked, so we will play on whichever courts are available.
Join Student Health and Wellness for Snoozefest, where you will play a life-sized board game called Sheeps and Scrolls, where your sleep habits decide your fate! Just like Chutes and Ladders, you'll climb toward better rest with good sleep hygiene and slide back for the not-so-great sleep decisions. You may also find yourself hanging out in a blanket fort!
Learn how to build better sleep habits and win sleep-themed prizes while you're at it! Pyjamas are highly encouraged—and might even earn you bonus chances to win.
Get ready, Thunderwolves, for No Pressure, All Pleasure: Consent, Relationships & All the Stuff Sex Ed Didn’t Teach Us.
Let’s be real — most of us didn’t get the full story in health class. Join us for a judgment-free, inclusive, and useful conversation about the things we wish we’d learned sooner: how to navigate consent with confidence, build healthy relationships (romantic or otherwise), communicate boundaries, and take care of your sexual health.
Embrace the cozy vibes of autumn and nourish your body and soul at the Fall Flavours event! Take part in delicious seasonal flavours and activities with important discussions on food security and well-being. Learn about resources and support systems available both on and off campus. We can’t wait to see you there!
Grab your fellow Thunderwolves and get ready to play Bubble Soccer! Spaces are limited for bubble soccer, so be sure to sign up in advance. Each bubble soccer registrant will be guaranteed a minimum of 15 minutes of playing time.
Get to know the wellness services on and off campus and meet the Lakehead staff that will be here to support you throughout your journey as a Thunderwolf! There will be lots of activities, food, crafts, and fun! We can’t wait to see you there!
This event is outdoors and weather-dependent. The rain date is Tuesday, September 9th.
Did you know the most common symptom of a sexually transmitted infection is none at all? That’s why regular testing is one of the best ways to take care of your health and your partners'.
Student Health and Wellness, in partnership with the Thunder Bay District Health Unit’s sexual health team and LUSU, is offering confidential, drop-in STI testing at The Outpost from 11 am-2 pm.
Prioritizing your well-being and taking care of yourself is a lot like nurturing a garden. Water, sunlight, and patience are important things that plants (and students!) need to thrive. Join Student Health & Wellness to intentionally plant seeds of self-care by creating your own mini garden and reflecting on a wellness routine that works for you. The mini garden will serve as a visual reminder to take time for yourself while discovering new strategies to recharge, de-stress, and cultivate growth. All supplies to create your garden of self-care will be provided!
safeTALK is an in-person workshop to build skills in suicide prevention. Participants will learn how to recognize and engage with someone thinking about suicide, overcome attitudes that act as barriers to help, talk openly about suicide and connect with intervention resources for further support.
