Invitation from East York Collegiate School Council

The EYCI School council have booked a speaker event that is open to the community, including the DA Morrison community.
The title of the talk is BEATING THE ODDS. It’s about taking responsibility for personal change and growth, overcoming obstacles, facing fears and attaining goals.

Lesley Andrews is a well know Canadian singer, actress and motivational speaker. She has been hired by many prominent companies to speak. Those that have heard her know why. She suffered from low self-esteem, a learning disability, constant weight battles and more. Yet despite the obstacles, she was able to overcome them and move on. Her story is truly inspirational and it’s told in a way that engages her audience. It’s one of those talks that you attend and you know …. it can make a big difference. It’s not to be missed.

Life is predictable in that we know there will be many challenges and obstacles. How best can we overcome them and empower our children to do the same. This event is open to the community, parents, teachers and students. Pass it on to your friends and neighbours and come out to support your community. All proceeds benefit the students @ EYCI.

The event date is October 19, 2010 @ EYCI Auditorium. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. (admission $5 at the door) For more information:
