We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Canadian Forces Museum and Aerospace Defence for graciously hosting Mr. Maclean and Mr. Klymyk’s history classes.

Our students had a fantastic opportunity to deepen their understanding of Canada’s rich history in aviation and national defence through engaging exhibits and knowledgeable staff. Experiences like this bring learning to life and help students connect with the important contributions Canada has made both at home and around the world.

Thank you for providing such an informative and memorable visit for our students—we truly appreciate your support of education! ✈️🇨🇦

👏 Celebrating an Outstanding Achievement! 🇮🇹🍝

A huge congratulations to Mrs. Thibault’s Grade 9 and 10 Hospitality Classes for an incredible accomplishment! Hosting over 40 guests for a beautifully executed five-course Italian-themed meal is no small feat—and the students rose to the occasion with professionalism, creativity, and care.

From the thoughtfully prepared menu to the elegant presentation and seamless service, this event showcased not only culinary skills but also teamwork, organization, and pride in their work. Every detail reflected the dedication and effort put in by the class, and it did not go unnoticed.

The overwhelmingly positive feedback from guests speaks volumes about the students’ performance. They truly created an authentic and memorable dining experience—one that many would expect from seasoned professionals!

Well done to each student for your hard work, and a special thank you to Mrs. Thibault, Mrs. Dauphnais for thier guidance and leadership in making this event such a success. 👏
