Tartans Get Hands-On with the Trades! 🛠️🚚
We had an amazing day as the Skills Ontario Trades and Tech Truck mobile unit rolled onto campus! Students jumped right into real-life simulations, getting a taste of diverse careers.
Highlights included:
Sparking skills with electrical work 💡
Precision with welding and spray painting 🎨
Sweetening things up with cake decorating 🎂
Taking the wheel of heavy machinery 🏗️
And even quick-change challenges like changing a tire!
Thank you so much to Skills Ontario for this incredible opportunity to explore the skilled trades.
Placements with parents, guardians, neighbours, relatives or family friends at their place of employment are great options. Permission forms are due to Period A teachers by this Friday, October 24th.
If your student needs support securing a placement, please have them reach out to our Guidance Counsellors.
If you know a business willing to welcome students for the day, please reach out to our office.
The students absolutely crushed it with a 3-0 win against our staff (we'll get 'em next year! 😉). But the real winner? The $660.16 we raised through the class buy-out for Breast Cancer Research! Thank you to everyone who played and donated. #TartanProud! #SchoolSpirit #MakingADifference
Engagement? Check. Awesome Vibe? Check. Non-stop Laughter? Double-check! So much fun! 😄
What perfect day to get lost (and found!) Mrs. Barne's, Mr. Gooding, Mr. Chamber's, and Mr. O'Neil's classes had an incredible time at the Corn Maze! Lots of exploring, problem-solving, connecting and engaging in outdoor activities.
