Things have been crazy at Niagara District this past week with many different activities taking place.
Last Tuesday our school hosted a Holocaust Symposium.
The senior drama class performed skits and monologues at the symposium that raised awareness about past and present day discrimination.
Last Wednesday our whole school attended the Remembrance Day Ceremony at the Niagara-on-the-Lake Cenotaph hosted by the Royal Canadian Legion.
Our choir sang three songs, and Lucy Campbell and Taylor Poulin recited In Flanders Fields.
Our Eco Club was recently awarded for attaining silver status for our school being eco friendly. It was accepted by Corie Hordijk, the president of our eco club, along with staff representatives Mrs. Kozloski and Mrs. Telford.
Our science classes have been very busy with many field trips. Mr. Reidiger's animal science class went to the Royal Winter Fair last week, and coming up next week the biology class will be going to the Science Center to see the Body Worlds exibit.
Good news all around in the sports department this week, our football team hosted Ann Meyer on Saturday for a friendly scrimmage. It was the team's last game and they won. The score was 32 to 20.
A girls rowing team is being put together by Mr. Jones, and we would like to thank him for that.
Our music council will be hosting a coffee house on Nov. 24. It is an acoustic night with mellow music and poetry, and the parent council will be selling espressos and cappuccinos.
Tickets are $5 and doors open at 7 p.m.
The community is welcome to attend.
