The good ol’ hockey game
Peru
The Rundle Summit Series continues on Friday, February 3 at the Westside Recreation Centre. The annual Staff-Student hockey game looks to be another exciting match as the series is once again all tied up. The puck drops at 1:40, so come out and cheer on your favourite team!
The countdown is on! Less than 70 days until we leave for Peru and every day the anticipation grows. At each meeting the trip seems to become more real as we learn about the various aspects of Peru’s culture, people and history. We are so thrilled that we have this opportunity to go on such an amazing trip. We are excited to volunteer at the school in Peru as well as visit Machu Picchu and the Amazon River. This is going to be the trip of a lifetime and we cannot wait!
Speech Club The Speech Club wrapped up its regular season on Friday, December 9 at Crescent Heights High School. Congratulations to Arijit Lodha, Jaclyn Hiebert, and Elizabeth Church. A special congratulations to Erika Kemp, who won the bronze medal in Poetry reading. It has been a fantastic year, and we are looking forward to Regionals February 10. Thanks again to all the parents who drove and judged – we could not have done it without you.
McLean Creek Profect Grant We have received a $500 grant which will be used to move our grade 7 service learning project forward. The grant is from Project Flow and is given to schools that are making a significant contribution to ensuring our watersheds are sustainable. The grant will be used to create signage out in the McLean Creek off road area.
