⛏️ IRH at the Baie Verte Mining Conference! 🪨

A big thank you to FireFly Metals , the Baie Verte Peninsula Chamber of Commerce , and the College of the North Atlantic for inviting our students to attend the Baie Verte Mining Conference (BVMC) on Thursday.

It was an informative and engaging event, and our students were grateful for the opportunity to learn more about the mining industry and the important role it plays in our region!

Great job athletes:)

Last week, some of our students had the wonderful opportunity to visit the Demasduit Regional Museum in Grand Falls-Windsor.

During their visit, students explored fascinating exhibits, learned about the rich history and culture of our province, and engaged in hands-on educational experiences.

A big thank you to the museum staff for sharing their knowledge and helping make this a memorable experience for our students!

Here are some photos from the Grade 9 Field Trip last week!

Our students spent the day exploring the roads and trails of Springdale, walking an impressive 12 kilometres throughout the community. Later they gathered at Dock Cove for a campfire and some well-deserved relaxation.

We are incredibly proud of our students, who were outstanding ambassadors for our school and community. They showed respect for the environment, demonstrated excellent behaviour, and were wonderful stewards of both our school and town throughout the day.

Way to go, Grade 9s! 👏
