The back-to-school season can bring excitement, stress, and everything in between.

As students return to the classroom, families are often adjusting to new schedules, changing routines, and increased demands on their time and energy.

A little preparation can go a long way.

In our blog, we explore simple strategies employers can share with their teams to help make the transition back to school smoother for employees and their families.https://www.cowangroup.ca/blog/back-to-school-tips-supporting-and-encouraging-your-child/

We capped off the summer with a final exciting Cowanchella event.

Coming together at the Cambridge office, we enjoyed music courtesy of (and DJ) Salah Hamad along with delicious food from the Fo’Cheezy food truck and a giant Kerplunk tournament. The uplifting atmosphere was filled with great conversations and friendly competition.

We’d like to commend the winners of the tournament, Qusai and Brayden. Congratulations on a game well-played!

As Cowanchella comes to a close for the season, we want to express our gratitude to the Employee Engagement Committee for all the care and effort they put into making this event a success. is already looking forward to the next opportunity to connect, celebrate, and have fun together!

As summer winds down, our Ottawa team came together for a favourite annual tradition: Make Your Own Ice Cream Sundae Day. The event offered a fun opportunity for colleagues to connect, enjoy a well-deserved break, and build their dream sundae with a variety of sweet toppings. More than just a seasonal treat, it was a chance to strengthen relationships, celebrate our team culture, and create memorable moments together.

Thank you to the Ottawa Events Committee for bringing this event to life and helping make our workplace a great place to connect, collaborate, and have fun.

Our third annual Backpack Drive was a great success. Thanks to the generosity of employees across our office locations, more children will start the school year with the supplies they need to succeed.

Together, we donated more than 40 backpacks filled with essential school supplies, along with lunch bags, water bottles, and pencil cases, helping more students start the school year ready to learn and thrive.

The organizations receiving these items are:
• Waterloo Regional Police 2026 Backpack Challenge
• Hamilton Police 2026 Fill the Pack Backpack Drive
• Brantford Community Resource Centre
• Various local charities in Woodstock

We’re grateful to for their collaboration and generosity. A special thank you to Vicky Brown, Leigh-Anne Minaker, Emily Huczek, Becky Winfield, and Jessica Pryse-Hamblin for exemplifying our values by running this event!

We proudly joined the 29th annual Golf Fore Nova Vita Charity Tournament at the Brantford Golf & Country Club.

As families prepare for a new school year, there’s plenty to think about, from school supplies and schedules to helping children settle back into the classroom.

For parents of children with asthma, back-to-school preparation includes taking a few extra steps to help keep their child healthy and safe. After months of summer routines and time away from school, ensuring your child has the support and resources they need can help reduce the risk of asthma-related complications and set them up for a successful year ahead.

With some simple planning, you can help your child manage their asthma with confidence both in and out of the classroom.
