Calculators & Picnic Tables

 Mr. Quinn Campbell showing our new TI-Inspire Graphing calculators (with bluetooth technology) to Mr. Greg Kitchen, SD 46 Assistant Superintendent, and two international student agents visiting the Sunshine Coast.

SD 46 carpenter, Mr. Warren Phillips, proudly shows off his handy work.  He worked hard to procure the wood for two of our neglected picnic tables outside of the District Life Skills room behind CSS. Thanks for the great work you did for our school and our students.


Have a great afternoon.

Chatelech Ski and Snowboard Team Off to a Great Start

The Chatelech Ski and Snowboard Team’s season is off to a great start, filling the podium for their past two races!  In the first competition, Graden Deasey brought home a first place in the boys snowboarding, passing through the gates substantially ahead of the runner up.  Pierre Martinet secured second place in the boys skiing and Laren Pudek took third place in the girls snowboarding.  Caleb Burnham had a great showing for his first race of the season, with a fifth place overall.   

The very next week, the team raced again up at Whistler, and the first place victory for the boys skiing went to Chatelech’s Pierre Martinet!  Pearl Deasey brought home the second place ribbon in girls snowboarding, and Laren Pudek secured third place for the second consecutive week.  Ella Adams raced extremely well and came in fifth in the girls skiing category.

The competition is heating up between Duncan Bryson and Jason Fournier as they fight for the lead in boys skiing.  Ingrid Bryson secured a very respectable seventh place in the girls skiing, and Callum Rive and Jasper Deasey followed up with a sixth and twelfth place respectively in the boys snowboarding.  Leif Magnussen, Braydon Fletcher and Kaiden deRoon, who joined the team this year, have had a great start to their season as well.  Chatelech will race again next week, and is sure to show strong again.

Thanks to Kirsten Deasey for providing the article and picture of Lauren.

Have a good day.

Provincial Exams Today

We were busy with our English 12 and Socials 11 Provincial Exams today.  Tomorrow we have the English 10 Provincial Exam in the morning, along with Math 12 and Chem 11 school exams. The English 11 school exam and the Francophone 12 exam are in the afternoon.

As you can appreciate Mr. Biel and I are spending most of our time invigilating exams or preparing for the exams, so our availability is limited.

We'll be back to normal next week with the start of the second semester.

Have a good night.

Clean Freak & Rockets

 Mr. Scarr making sure no dirt enters the weight room.

 The Weight Room is impeccable due to the steps our PE staff take to ensure it stays clean!

 Mr. Emmerson's Tech Ed 9 students built rockets propelled by air.  The water in the rockets keep them balanced.

The aftermath of takeoff!!! The students really seemed to enjoy the activity. Great job.

Hopefully the great weather will continue into the weekend.


Until Monday!
