TRU Chemistry Contest Results

Shirley L. (Gr. 12) tied for 1st place out of almost 1000 students in the TRU Grade 12 Chemistry Contest. This is the best performance by a Yorkie since we’ve had students write the contest.

Elvina T. Christy C. and Julie W. (all Gr. 11’s), tied for 2nd, 3rd and 3rd respectively in the Grade 11 version of the contest.

Congratulations to all the girls for their tremendous performances. They have all won Chapters gift certificates and TRU merchandise for their achievements.

Sailing Club Update

Thanks to student sponsor, Denice W. and YHS alumnae, Alexandra Monahan, the YHS Senior School sailing club enjoyed 6 sessions of dinghy sailing in English Bay with MacSailing Academy. Eight of the eleven participants, including Mr. Braune, did an extra session to complete the on-water requirements for their White Sail 1/11 certificate!
