St. Charles College Ugly Sweaters Team Up with Holy Trinity Grade One students in PJ’s

The grade nine French Immersion students at St. Charles College are currently studying a unit on “Les Contes” (short stories). One of their assignments was to create a “conte” and develop vocabulary words and comprehension questions about their “contes”.

The students collaborated with teacher Colette Perrin’s Grade 1 Immersion students to read the “contes”, and assist them with their French reading and understanding.

The small students also happened to be celebrating pajama day and were divided into stations for story time with the big SCC students who were celebrating ugly Christmas sweater day.

Holy Trinity Thankful for Community Support

John Steinbeck is quoted as saying, “I guess there are never enough books. ”The school community at Holy Trinity Catholic School feels the same! They would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to all who generously donated to this year’s ADOPT-A-SCHOOL campaign. Each and every contribution is greatly appreciated! At the end of this autumn’s 2-week campaign a grand total of $8,139.00 was gathered for Holy Trinity to use to add to the school’s library collection.

But, that is not all… on December 2nd, 2015, the staff of the local Chapters and Coles stores dropped by Holy Trinity to officially kick-off “Giving Tuesday” by “giving back” to our school community through the donation of a collection of treasured books (each employee suggested their favourite children’s book to donate to the school).

In another surprise twist – the store representatives opened a large poster tied in a bright red ribbon to reveal yet another donation of $5000.00!! These additional funds will go far towards helping encourage the love of reading for every student at Holy Trinity Catholic School.

St. Charles College and Holy Trinity Join Forces in Song

Students in the Early Learning Kindergarten program at Holy Trinity Catholic Elementary School visited the music room at St. Charles College recently to be entertained and wowed by senior music students.

The students learned about percussion, different instruments and music therapy.  The senior students also treated the students to a couple songs such as the Spiderman theme song.

Mrs. Demore feels it is important for students to learn to appreciate music at a very early age.
