Could spending a week in Leamington help shape the next generation of doctors?

That's exactly what Discovery Week aims to do.

Twenty first-year medical students from Western University's Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry spent the week at Erie Shores HealthCare, learning firsthand what it's like to practice medicine in a community hospital setting.

From emergency medicine to hands-on training exercises, students explored the unique opportunities and challenges that come with providing healthcare in smaller communities.

Read the full story in this week's Southpoint Sun to see what they learned and why experiences like these matter for the future of healthcare in Essex County.

A vision that started 10 years ago has officially grown into something incredible.

École élémentaire catholique Saint-Michel recently celebrated the grand re-opening of its new state-of-the-art greenhouse — a hands-on learning space where students are growing everything from peppers and tomatoes to flowers and perennials while learning about agriculture, sustainability and responsibility along the way.

Built through the support of local greenhouse industry partners and the passion of staff, students and volunteers, the greenhouse is another example of how deeply agriculture is rooted in our community.
