Annual Fun Fair -Another Success!! |
|
 Thanks to everyone who came (out in the rain!) to support our school at the Annual Bird's Creek Fun Fair. Fun times were had by all from the BBQ, to the cotton candy to the silent auction. Excitement mounted as the raffle winners were announced. Special thanks to the Fun Fair organizing committee as well as the many local businesses who once again donated items and services. |

 Students will participate in the annual Jump Rope for Heart in the afternoon of May 18. We are raising money for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Be a "Heart Hero" |

Congratulations to the BCPS relay teams who travelled to Belleville recently. It was a cold and windy day for running, but the rain held off and our students perservered.
Four of six teams made it on to the semi-finals! Our Atom A boys team consisting of Carter, Brodie, Riley and Jamie made it through to the finals where they placed 6th in the whole county!
Congratulations to all runners for their efforts and good behaviour.
Special thanks to Mrs. Dickey and Mr. Metzger who volunteered many recesses to help coach the relay teams.
