Terry Fox Run

It was a bright and beautiful day for YHS’s own mini Marathon of Hope. From Grade 1 to Grade 12, all of our students showed up in house colours to run and show their support for the Terry Fox Foundation, and the faculty were right there with them (this was the second lap for these two).

Organized by the Community Service Captains, Anjuli and Hasti, and lead through the pre and post activities by the House Captains, Tianna, Talya and the Emmas, it was a great event that brought the whole school together. Again this year, Grade 11s and 12s were paired with buddies from Grades 1-3, and those little ones kept the seniors on their toes. This year, the school raised $2500 for the cause.

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
