They said the job was fairly intense because they had to get a business licence, a food handling permit and permission to set up the stand in the town’s sausage park.

Glimpse of university for Andrew School students

BY JANA SEMENIUK

Andrew School students from grades 3-6 got a first hand look at University life by participating in a USchool program by the University of Alberta according to a press release by Elk Island Public Schools.

The program saw the students visiting the U of A for one week and ended with a special convocation event at the Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium June 9.

Andrew teacher Bria Shulko-Zakharov said the program is a great experience for the students.

“U School is amazing for rural schools,” said Shulko-Zakharov. “It exposes students to the opportunities available after K-12 and inspires them to pursue post-secondary education.
