Building Skills and Community Connections! 🔨🚜
Our senior Construction class is doing more than just following a curriculum—they’re learning the power of networking and real-world application.
The students recently tackled a problem-solving challenge: designing a small-scale well water pumphouse in partners and then scaled this design up into a full-size build, which was officially delivered to a local farmer today! 🏠💧
We are so proud of these students for connecting their classroom skills to everyday life and supporting our local agricultural community. 🛠️

Understanding Fashion students combined their knowledge of the Elements of Design with their lessons on Fibres and Fabrics this week. So much fun seeing their colour schemes coming to life on cotton!

Students from Mr. O'Neil's Standing Bear, Entrepreneurship classes, and Future Elders groups led by Tyler White, Robin Isaac, and Ms. Jacobs participated in a multi-location field trip to enrich their understanding of marketing, leadership, and First Nations, Métis, Inuit art and culture. The trip included visits to the ROM and AGO to study art and culture, the Eaton Centre for market analysis, and Activate for a series of immersive leadership and team building experiences.
The Raising Healthy Children class has been learning about the value of reading with children. We went to The Family Centre to experience it firsthand. The little ones were thrilled to have the teens visit.
ALLP getting ready for the Plaid Peers Egg Drop!
🎉 Plaid Peers Eggstravaganza Success! 🎉
It was the "Plaid Peers Egg Drop Challenge" today! Our Grade 9 students collaborated in groups to tackle an exciting engineering challenge: create a structure to protect a raw egg dropped from the high gym balcony. We saw incredible ingenuity and fantastic application of teamwork strategies. Did the eggs survive? You bet some did! 🥚
