As we head into the final two months of the school year, students and staff continue to make every day a meaningful day of learning. I often get asked if we are winding down. In fact, we are only getting busier. While trying to complete the day- to-day and year-end tasks, we are busy planning for next year as well.
Congratulations to the grade 7 band who performed very well at their first band festival on April 24.
A huge congratulations to all the students who made up the cast and crew for the musical The Music Man. The four shows were amazing and it was a lot of fun for everyone. Thanks to all who came out to support our students. Thanks to all the staff for pitching in and making it a whole school event. Thanks to the following community members for their amazing contributions; Mike Plett (set construction), Kathy Plett (piano accompanist), Steven Andres and Josh Maendel (Sound Technicians), and Deb Rogalsky (videographer). And special thanks to our producers and directors, Ms. Friesen, and Mrs. Hashemian for all their hard work and late nights. Such an event is not possible without the dedication of these people.
On Friday, May 4, students and staff will enjoy a pancake breakfast to promote our sense of community. Later that day, students and staff will go out and clean up a bit of the winter garbage that was strewn around town.
Best of luck to our boys’ baseball team. Season starts on May 3 against Niverville in Blumenort. Check out our website for all game times and locations.
ISCF students are on their retreat from May 4 – 6. Thanks to everyone who came out to their Pancake Breakfast on Apr. 7. It was a record setting in terms of attendance and donations collected.
