Today, 4 students from Grade 7 competed in the Grade 7/8 Spelling Bee.  Congratulations to Marwan, Dina, Youssef K and Mahmoud for your hard work in preparing for the Spelling Bee.  Your efforts were evident when words like pneumonia and horrific did not cause you trouble. 

A special congratulations goes to Mahmoud for winning the Grade 7 side of the Spelling Bee!  Great work everyone.
 
The Environment Fair was an excellent display of student work.  On February 7th, 2013, Grade 7's hosted the fair in the school Multi-Purpose room.  There were many visitors from other students (10 full classes came to visit), administrators, school directors and parents. 

The students all proudly displayed their work for all to see and had the opportunity to present and teach their environment topic to those that came to visit.  There were some very creative displays full of excellent information.

Great work to all Grade 7's!

Come out to the school on February 7th, 2013 from 8:30 - 12:05 to see approximately 25 displays on Human Impacts on the Environment.  Grade 7 students have worked very hard to put together interesting displays discussing the social impacts of changes in the environment.  Pictures to be posted after the Fair!

Come and see how human behaviour has transformed our environment and what the Grade 7's are proposing as possible solutions to problems such as:

1) Glacier Melting
2) Carbon Emissions
3) Amazon Rainforest
4) Salt water Pollution

And many more!
