We’re Running for Terry

The whole school joined together for the Terry Fox Run this morning. Gr. 1-3s were paired up with a Gr. 11/12 “buddy” from the Senior School, Gr. 4-7s were in their house colours, and the rest of the study body, teachers and staff were all out in force in their athletic wear.  The House Captains led a fun warm-up on the field, and then we were off!
