A day of Paddling
Our Secondary Gym students enjoyed an amazing day on the water as they participated in canoeing and kayaking! Students had the opportunity to build their paddling skills, work together as a team, and challenge themselves while exploring the outdoors. What a fantastic way to stay active, connect with nature, and celebrate the warm weather.


Our 2nd Schoolyard Revitalization Day was a tremendous success!
Thanks to the incredible efforts of our students, parent volunteers, staff, and community members, we continued transforming our outdoor space by creating new flower beds, planting shrubs and perennials, and enhancing the natural beauty of our school grounds. These improvements are helping us build a more welcoming, engaging, and inspiring environment where students can learn, explore, and connect with nature. A special thank you to: • Sharon Boddy for her continued support,
