Blazer Exchange

Blazer Exchange April 2012

On Monday, April 30th we had a special assembly in honour of Blazer Exchange.

This is where the current student executive “passes the torch” to the incoming 2012-13 executive (There is no literal exchanging of blazers).

The assembly provides a chance for the the current executive to reflect on their year, thank their team and give words of advice to their successors. Gifts were exchanged, some tears were shed, and the morning concluded with the exec’s final (and funny!) skit of the year.

Service Saturday: Gr.7’s at Belkin House

On Saturday, April 28th, eight girls from Grade 7 headed to the Salvation Army’s Belkin House located in the Downtown Eastside to volunteer with helping prepare and serve lunch.

For over four hours, the girls worked extremely hard peeling carrots and potatoes, chopping up onions and making sandwiches for over 100 people. They then graciously served the clients, bringing youthful smiles to the Belkin House residents. A great time was had by all as the girls lived our motto, “Not for Ourselves Alone”.
