MSS students are always kept busy, even as the end of the year approaches. From community clean-ups, to presentations, to contests, there is always something going on! Let鈥檚 take a look at what happened this week.聽
It is the moment we have all been waiting for, the winners of the Headstrong photo contest have been announced! For the past few weeks, students have been asked to submit photos that show the beauty of Manitoulin Island, in a campaign promoting mindfulness. Students snapped pictures of sunsets, the Northern Lights, Lake Huron, sunflower fields and more. It must not have been an easy job for Headstrong to determine the winners! On Tuesday, May 8 the morning announcements revealed who captured the best photos. Congratulations to the third place winner Destiny Migwans, second place winner Myah Gravelle, and first place winner Bradley Slaught.聽
On Tuesday, May 28 tryouts for a mixed softball team began, with an additional tryout on Friday, May 31. Everyone was welcome to join and show off their softball skills in preparation for the tournament on Tuesday, June 4.聽
Grade 11 students had visitors from Laurentian University on Tuesday, May 28.
