Congratulations to All Spartan Cross Country Runners

Congrats to all runners who competed last week at COSSA, and thank you for a fabulous season. Season four was the most entertaining so far! Special mentions go out to Nathaniel Cardinal who ran his fastest 5 km of the season. An incredible pace of 4:53 per km. Both senior boys, Spencer Watson and Alex Larsen had strong finishes in a very fast 6km race. Alec finished 29^th out of 66 runners and Spencer Watson placed 11^th, having steadily moved up the standings over the course of the season.   Sydney Watson improved immensely over the season finishing an amazing 7 minutes faster at COSSA than her first meet in September. Finally, Emily Spencer saw her training over the season pay off as she moved past a 4 year St Mary’s rival to finish ahead of her at the last 2 meets.

Well done to all runners and congratulations on a fabulous season!!

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL

Yesterday the Jr & Sr Girls Volleyball team travelled to Norwood for Kawartha qualifiers. The Girls were on their game.

Jr. Girls lost to Campbellford in 3, but beat Kenner and Norwood 2 straight. Making us #2. Outstanding players with excellent serving was Avery Drummond, Julia Temelovski, Sydney Watson and Sarah Clark. Rylee Smith had an outstanding number of hard hits scoring us many points. Kate Mulder showed excellent leadership by always calling the ball and ensuring her teammates knew what they had to do to win the point. Huge skill improvement was made by Kayla Doherty and Ava Munro.

Sr. Girls also lost to Campbellford in 3 and beat Kenner and Norwood 2 straight. This made our Sr. Girls #1. Outstanding overhand serving by Emily Spencer serving 12 points against Norwood. Steller hitting and blocking by Abby Teno against Campbellford. Amazing digging by Taryn Madill against Kenner, she was a digging machine. The outstanding cheering award goes to our exchange student Venla Liane, even one of the referees commented on her cheering.

Both teams, whether on the court or on the bench played well together. They were supportive of each other, they encouraged each other and cooperated like a team should whether they were a starter or not. No practice tonight after school.

A reminder of the staff student volleyball game on Thursday where Staff will certainly take you to be slaughtered. Please remember to bring your volleyball uniform and equipment and prepare to be creamated!! GAME ON & BALL UP!

This year summer school courses will be offered through eLearning with face to face learning as an option if Ontario Public Health approves it.  In online courses students will continue to read, work independently or as a member of a group, complete assignments and interact with their classmates and teacher. While students should plan to spend a minimum of 6-8 hours per weekday on their eLearning course, they will have some flexibility to choose when they work during the day, as long as they meet course due dates and times. Each course is facilitated by a teacher who establishes the timing of how the class works through the course material, in part to encourage collaboration and enable effective feedback. Students are encouraged to establish routines that will support this.

 

All classes are conditional upon sufficient enrolment and are subject to cancellation. You will be contacted by KPRDSB staff if a course is cancelled by the weekend of June 27^th 

 

Please Note: Pending future announcements from the Ministry of Education and Public Health offices, Summer School program offerings and schedules may change.  Please visit the KPRDSB’s web site on a regular basis for any updates regarding programs and registration.
