At our Compassion for Animals program this week, we had a very special visit from Hazel, a therapy dog from Sunshine Therapy Dogs, along with her wonderful volunteer, Meghan! ☀️🐶

Our kids had the absolute best time petting Hazel, learning all about what therapy dogs do, and even taking her for a fun group walk. 🌳🦮 They also got to feed Hazel the homemade pumpkin treats they baked themselves!

Safe to say, everyone left with a huge smile, and maybe a little dog hair!

Huge thanks to Meghan and Hazel for bringing so much joy to LUSO this week! 🥰✨

A huge thank you to Sandra Zarate, Workforce Development Specialist at London Economic Development Corporation (LEDC), for an incredible information session yesterday! 👏

With 36 people in attendance, the energy was amazing—congratulations to the three lucky winners who took home prizes during the Q&A trivia!

🎃🐶 Pumpkin Treats & Bingo Nights! 🎲✨

Last night, our Literacy Program kids combined learning with a whole lot of heart for a "Compassion for Animals" themed evening at LUSO.

The youth baked healthy, homemade pumpkin dog treats that are heading straight to the Humane Society London & Middlesex to show some love to local shelter animals! 🐾 To celebrate their hard work, they capped off the night with a classic game of Bingo.

Fun, learning, and giving back—all in one night!

Our Literacy Programs were buzzing in May!

Our Shared Beginnings theme was Farm Animals, and our little ones had a blast exploring and learning.

We wrapped up our first round of Sketch Squad, which was a huge hit — stay tuned for its return! We also enjoyed the warm weather with outdoor nature sketching.
In Little Scientists, we dug into the layers of soil and took learning outside with a scavenger hunt and plenty of messy play.

For Creative Club, thank you to Urban Roots London for donating seedlings! Participants decorated pots and planted their own seedlings to take home.

We also launched Board Game Builders, another big success. Our young creators designed unique games and decorated custom boxes to store them.

What an amazing month of creativity, curiosity, and hands-on fun.
