MAYMONT — In a few short weeks, classes will be finished for another school year. The Grade 12 class is busy preparing for their graduation and final exams. The other grades are getting ready for summer.
Last week's article should have listed Ethan's last name as Manson. The Marafun runners ran in his memory.
In the school, there is Chemistry in Action. May 26, the Grade 11 and 12 students presented projects to the elementary students based upon chemistry concepts. The students were to create an interactive booth where elementary students could explore and delight in chemistry. Some examples were: How do packs work? (endothermic reactions), elephant toothpaste, lava lamps, tie dye and many others. They were very informative projects for the younger students.
Three students, Keara Amson, Jacob Young, and Carlee Hamilton, attended the provincial track and field meet in Yorkton last Friday. Keara won the bronze medal in the discus throw. Carlee placed a respectable 14th in the javelin throw and Jacob did well in his running event.
Elementary house leagues have finished for the year. The overall winners were the Mean Machines. Tyler Klassen and Noah Montgrand, both Grade 5 students, were the captains of this team.
The Maymont School Talent /Drama Night was held June 4. Mrs. Jean-Anne Jackson was the MC for the evening. Jocelyn Bzdel played the piano, Keeley Bzdel played the guitar and the talent show concluded with Jan Friesen playing the piano.
Following the talent show, drama students from Grades 7 through 12 performed Hoodie. There were various vignettes that centered on the theme of life as a teenager. The message of the play was to always be true to yourself.
The play was directed by Mrs. Sarah Ficko and assisted by Mrs. Jackson.
The evening concluded with delicious trifle desserts that were provided by the staff.
