Week of Welcome

The second week of September was a busy one with many events throughout.

Wednesday was our 'Walk to Breakfast' in which students and staff started the day with a short walk followed by a healthy hot breakfast served at the school. A bake sale was held at lunch on Thursday to help raise money for the Horn of Africa. Currently, the Canadian government is matching contributions dollar for dollar. The same evening was our annual Meet the Staff night and this year, SCC contributed with a free community BBQ, money hunt and dunk tank. We ended off the week with our annual Terry Fox Walk. This year marked our 20th year of participation. With the total from the previous 19 years coming in over $98000, it is highly expected that we will break the $100000 mark this year.
A big thank you to everyone who helped organize and run the events of this week. Many people stepped forward to help make this week the success that it was!
