1. Grade 12s! Regarding the grad retreat. Many parents also paid the fee for the grad retreat when they paid the graduation fee. Be sure to check with your parents and ask if they did pay for the grad retreat. You don’t want to miss it if it’s been paid for. They would have notification of payment to confirm.

7. The varsity girls’ soccer team battled hard against SJC in the semi-finals yesterday. Unfortunately, SJC snuck in a second goal, taking the lead and claiming the 2-1 win. Well done to our lady lions for showing up and leaving their heart on the field. What an incredible season from all, especially the seniors who are off to bigger places next year: Alex, Danika, Sierra, Sarah, Haley and Harper. Way to make us proud ladies!
8. The Varsity Boys Soccer Team showed their true identity yesterday with a 3-1 victory over the BCI Mustangs in the semi-final. Eamon N. Scored a brace and Jackson D. Added a great finish to round out the scoring. Tarun A. Was unanimously chosen for man of the match as he shut down BCI’s most dangerous playmaker. The boys have now earned a shot at redemption to take on St. John’s in the final on Thursday at 2pm at North Park. They remember what happened on our home turf and will make sure it won’t happen again. Practice at 7AM tomorrow boys!
