Meet the Seniors

Posted on October 14, 2023 by Ms. Watt | Leave a comment

Today is one of my favourite days of the school year when we get to visit the grade 7s in the gym and learn about all of their great accomplishments, hobbies, interests and favourite things. It’s so exciting for me to see my past students so confidently display themselves for the visiting classes.
Way to go grade 7s! So proud of who you’ve become. Division 9 students, what was your favourite thing you saw today on display? Was there a grade 7 that had very similiar hobbies /interests as you!? What did you have in common?
