The students were evenly distributed throughout various groups, each consisting of students from Grade 1 through to Grade 8. Their talents were shown in the sculptures that were created. During the following afternoon, numerous games were played outside by the Grades 4- 8. The remainder of the students were on- lookers and went to each location for a short observation. On February 21, students were to bring their lunches. Everyone was to bring as many edibles that were white, signifying the color of snow. The team who had the most credited to them, won. After lunch, everyone proceeded up to the arena for an afternoon of skating, com- pliments of the teaching staff. On February 28, they will be able to attend skating again, as it is a Professional Development day. Again, thanks to the teachers, it is free of charge.
