Halloween Fun

From a Haunted House, to dancing with international guest from abroad, to the Halloween Costume Contest, there were a lot of fun things happening at Chatelech Secondary School today.

I trust that everyone will have a fun and safe halloween.

 Our Grade 12 boys challenged our Grade 12 girls, as part of our Halloween festivities.

Today at lunch our Student Voice organized a timed pumpkin carving contest.  The results were quite interesting.  Thanks to the students for organizing this fun event.

Root Beer & Cells

 Student Voice had a Root Beer Chugging Contest at lunch on Monday. The pre-Halloween activities continue with a Volleyball Game today at lunch.

 The start of the second Root Beer chugging contest.  Students had to run around the garbage can while drinking their root beer.

 Ms. Liddicoat's Grade 8 students have been demonstrating their understanding of cells by making edible cells.  The three categories for prizes include: Most Disgusting, Most Accurate and Most Beautiful.

Well done! 

BCPVPA CONNECTING LEADERS CONFERENCE

 BC Minister of Education, Honourable Peter Fassbender, addresses principals and vice-principals at our annual conference in Richmond today.

Afternoon keynote speaker, George Couros, got everyone up to dance a little.

The BCPVPA Connecting Leaders Conference had a theme of: Beyond Innovation and Change.  Internationally recognized thinker on the future of learning and innovation, Simon Breakspear, was the morning keynote speaker, while George Couros, Division Principal of Innovation of Teaching and Learning for the School Division (Alberta) was the afternoon speaker.

They were both excellent speakers and presented some great ideas.  The conference continues until Saturday afternoon.  It has been very inspiring so far.

Have a good evening.

Go Lions!
