I really appreciate you coming to G.L. an letting us share our feelings. In November I did the program and it’ll never get old to me. I wouldn’t mind doing this 100 more times. I hope grade 9’s or even every grade from grade 6 & higher can get this chance. I can ...

I am so glad that you guys came here today. I am not a very open person when it comes to talking about my life but today really helped and really showed me how many people feel the same way as me. You guys are an inspiration on so many people’s lives and ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for this experience, it really opened my eyes to so many things I experienced and learned today. You showed us how to work together and put us in groups so we can co-operate with each other, for us to be a leader, to be respectful and get to know ...

Dear Jack, My name is L. Graham. As a former and current leader, I believe this leadership workshop was one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life time. This workshop was a great way for different team leaders, to open up to everyone around them. Also to show and share the ...

Thanks a lot & I hope to see you again one day. My promise is that I will try to help support as many people as I can. Love. (original message)

Leader’s Quest Program

Dear Jack, Today was definitely a learning experience for everybody. I think everyone really learned something new about someone or something. Thank you so much for coming to Madonna and teaching everybody a little bit about themselves and others. I promise to try and be a better leader and help people when they ...

Dear Jack, What I most enjoyed about this workshop is how you picked random people in our class for group leaders. By doing this, it allowed me to communicate better with my peers. Since I was in a group with random people, I was forced to talk and this helped build my communication ...

Dear Jack, Today I met a lot of people and my impressions of them had changed from when I first met them. I made a marshmallow pasta sculpture thing and I made a lot of great friends. I sincerely thank you for coming to our school and being with us here today, because ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for today because I got to meet and talk to children I never would have spoken to before. I’m new to Madonna, in fact new to Canada, so as you can imagine I have no friends as yet and as a result, I find myself on my own a ...

This gave me chance to say sorry to some people I hurt.

Brian age 13, grade 8

Thank you for today. You have made me learn new thing and make new friends. You have shown me that there are other people who feel the way I do. I learned that certain things annoy people when they talk to me and that somethings seem to annoy me too. I have noticed ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for this amazing experience. It has showed me a lot about being a leader, and being respectful to one another. Today, I will walk out of here with a brand new attitude towards being kind. When we had to cross the line for our problems, it really it me ...

Everything I learned today will be very useful. I can help other people with problems and going through hard times. My promise is to help students feel more comfortable. (original message)

Leader’s Quest Program

Dear Jack, I thank you for this wonderful experience. It was a great life lesson and the benefits of it are worthwhile. I did feel like the sessions in the schools were too short and rushed. I like the games and activities you did with us. The cross the line activity was my ...

This is my second time participating in this, and it doesn’t get easier. It was hard to open up to people that I didn’t know, but it was a great experience. It was hard to see people cry, even if I didn’t know them, and especially difficult to see the amount that go ...

I’m really thankful you both came to GL Roberts because there are so many students not accepting themselves & every student that came today & yesterday greatly benefited from your program. There are things I never would have let out by talking normally with my friends, things that I needed to get out ...
