Sports Day

Junior students wrapped up the school year with their annual Sports Day.

Students made there way to stations on the field, playground, sand pit and the gym. The “Gail Ruddy themed” Sports Day had cleverly named stations such as:

  • “Water We Going to Do With Out You?” – cowboy themed water relay (because Ms. Ruddy comes from Alberta).
  • Keeping “A Head” – Tug-of-War
  • Seeking Ms. Ruddy – game with wheelie boards
  • What Rhymes with Orange (Ms. Ruddy’s favourite colour)
  • Your Dream Retirment home – drawing game on white boards
  • Orange You Glad You’re Leaving – relay race
  • Birds N’ Leaves
  • Sunshine Bound

Jr. Assembly for Ms. Ruddy

The Junior School said ‘goodbye’ to Ms. Ruddy in style during the Jr. School assembly on Monday, June 16.

Ms. Ruddy was presented with a book of ideas from the Gr. 1-3s, of things she could do during her retirement. The YHS Athletics Department – with the help of some students – presented her with every bit of Tigers gear you can imagine: a rain jacket, gym bag, warm-up jacket, a hoodie, a jersey with the number 20 (symbolizing her 20 years at YHS) and more! The Grade 6s performed, and there was a Grade 5 fashion show honouring Ms. Ruddy’s great fashion sense. What a lovely send-off!
