Looking forward to a fantastic school year!

Our Equine Studies class have been inviting younger students to join them at the arena. The E.S. students demonstrated some of the skills they have learned (haltering, saddling, bushing, cleaning hooves, circling, etc.). After some demonstrations, the younger students had an opportunity to give it a try themselves. Below are some pictures of the grade 3/4 classes visit.

On June 10th, our students enjoyed a great afternoon of fun and education. Students were able to participate in a variety of activities and presentations, learning about Indigenous drumming, beading, Inuit Games, Metis and Haida culture, and much more. Thank you Mrs. Paice, and to the many volunteers who provided supplies (including a teepee), and most importantly for volunteering your time and expertise!

Our first choral music class has been a wonderful success.  They (accompanied by some supportive community members) provided a wonderful evening performance for parents and our community on the evening of June 10th.  It was very enjoyable listening to our students perform in front of an audience.  The class followed up with a performance to the entire elementary wing of the school (and many secondary students joined to listen as well).  Way to go HAWKS!

Our Principal’s Work Ethic’s Honour Roll students had a very enjoyable trip to Grande Prairie.  We checked out (and stayed at) the College Dorms, expended a lot of energy at the Jump Yard, splashed around the East Link Center, and practised our laser skills at Laser Tag.  Oh, and we shopped…and shopped…sigh.  It was a great way to celebrate another awesome year.  Way to go HAWKS!
