April can be a stressful month for students as they prepare for exams, and participating in various health related activities can be an educational and effective way to support self-care.

From April 10 to 14, second year students from the Fitness and Health Promotion program will be supporting the health of NC students by leading Wellness Week on campus.

All students are invited to play Wellness BINGO for a chance to win 1 of 3 $25 gift cards (Gas Card, Tim Hortons gift cards and more!) To play, students must complete a row of health-related activities on the card over the course of the week. Someone at each of the activities must sign-off on completion and you may verify your own self-care activity participation.

Sample activities include:

• Interact with Fitness and Health students and participate in learning activities on Tuesday, April 11 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. in the Athletic Wing or Friday, April 14 10:30 to 12:30 p.m. in the Applied Health Wing.
• Visit NCTRAC or the Wellness Lounge and complete an activity during open hours
• Attend the fitness centre or a group fitness class in the Athletic Centre
• Attend Meditation Mondays
• Attend Open Gym
  • Many other self-care options are also recommended on the BINGO card

Students can pick up their BINGO card from the Athletic Centre, FHP students booths (Tuesday or Friday), or NC-TRAC.

All BINGO cards must be submitted to the FHP students or the Athletic Centre by Friday, April 14 at 12:30 p.m. The draw will take place at 12:30 and students will receive an email if they are a winner.
