Happy Spring Break!


The kids participated in a number of Spirit Week and Numeracy activities this week. We watched the Minute to Win It Staff Edition, the Jr. High students play the teachers in basketball, we participated in an awesome Gym Blast with new equipment, a math filled afternoon and we watched the Jr.High's duct tape fashion show and finished the week by putting pies in my face! It was a great week and I look forward to seeing everyone after the break!

French Activity Day!


The kids had a fantastic day yesterday participating in our school's French Activities Day. Students took part in 10 stations which included: eating bannock and pea soup, relay races, face painting, an obstacle course, tug of war, a sleigh ride, leg wrestling, stories with a Voyageur, arm wrestling, jigging, and observing France's national sport, soccer, played between the 6-8 students against the teachers. 

The day was engaging and the students seemed to have a fantastic day. It seemed as though the tug of war and challenging the teachers to arm wrestling and leg wrestling were the highlight of the day for most students!

A huge thanks to Mrs. Heppner, Miss Blight, and Mr. Peters for all of their hard work planning the day!
