CSS Students Attend WE DAY in Vancouver








Twenty Chatelech Secondary School students, Ms. Strom and I attended "We Day" at Rogers Arena, in Vancouver, yesterday.  It was an awesome experience.  There were numerous speakers including: Premier Christy Clarke, former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, Martin Luther King Jr. III, double amputee Spencer West, Assembly of First Nations Leader Shawn Atleo  and others. Avril Lavigne was the headliner musician.

We Day is part of the Save the Children Foundation, which addresses global issues including clean water and education in third world countries.  Our students will be doing some activities to support some local and global initiatives, accepting the challenge presented by Craig Kieiburger.

It was a pleasure attending this event with these student leaders!

Have a great weekend!
