HO HO HO

Well, I missed the Pancake Breakfast at CSS, but they were serving at Halfmoon Bay Elementary.  I feel bad that school was cancelled today, as many of us were looking forward to the Annual CSS Christmas Talent Show- hopefully we can reschedule this for early in the New Year.

I want  to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and I wish you the joy of the season.  Enjoy the break and be safe.

See you in the New Year.

Sr. Girls' B-Ball drop one to Pender

An aggressive Pender Harbour SS Sr. Basketball Team took an early lead on our girls and we played catch up the rest of the way. We played with a lot of heart and our second half was filled with a lot of positives. Grace Stanhope led our team in scoring with 12 points, Eugenie Jacobsen had 8 points, while Sydney Downie, Morgan Downie and Finola Fogarty each had 6 points.  The girls are off until the New Year.

The Junior Boys' were successful with a victory at home against Mulgrave. Congratulations!!

Directions in French/Wreaths & a Beautiful Sketch

 Mr. Mocellin's French 8 students were blindfolded and had to listen to directions in French to stay safe!

 These Interact students were involved in making Christmas wreaths at lunch today.

What a marvelous drawing.... I saw this in Ms. Kelly's senior Art class-- beautiful!!!


Have a good night.

Sr. Girls' Basketball Team Lose to Strong Carson Graham

The CSS Senior Girls’ Basketball Team lost a hard fought game to a strong Carson Graham Secondary 60-28.  The girls had a strong second half more than doubling their offensive output of the first half.  Leading scorers for the Eagles were Finola Fogarty with 10 points and Eugenie Jacobsen with 7 points, while Kimyah Bridges chipped in 5 points. Grace Stanhope had a strong game defensively with numerous blocked shots (about 10) and excellent rebounding. The girls next action is an exhibition game at Pender Harbour on Wednesday.

 

 Post game dance practice.... we missed the 7:15 pm ferry by 4 minutes!

 Having some fun waiting for the ferry!!

Good night.

Peer Tutors with Attitude

Our Peer Tutors provide a lot of support to the PE program, particularly during the Dance Unit.  The Hip Hop attitude was pretty obvious when I stopped by the gym this afternoon.

Thanks to all the peer tutors who provide support in our classes-- you are awesome.

It's time to call it a week and get some R & R.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Powered Skooter & Girls' Senior BBall Team Stumbles at Sutherland

 The prototype needs some work, but the students in the metal shop are working on some interesting projects.

It was a tough 61-40 loss to Sutherland last night for the Senior Girls' Basketball Team.  They fell short but still represented CSS well.

Thank you ladies and thanks to Ms. Bari McDonell for driving the van! Having to catch the last ferry made for a long day.
