Maymont Central School was colourful Jan. 14, because the SLC sponsored a Plaid Day for students and staff. There were plaid shirts, plaid pajama pants and even some plaid dresses around the school.
Many of our students are busy with other activities when the school day is done. Keara Amson, Grade 10, is a second year-forward on the Battlefords Sharks hockey team. In the month of December, Keara scored four goals in four games and was named the first star for December. Keara is continually working to improve her game and is a dedicated player. She was named an assistant captain on the team.
Allison Wawryk, Grade 5, is a member of the Table Mountain race team for skiing. On the weekend, she participated in the Sask. Cup races . She won two silver medals in her age category.
The elementary students are currently finishing floor hockey during their noon-hour intramural sports. The next sport will be mini-basketball. They play Monday and Wednesday at noon hour.
A big thank you to Doug Brehon, for offering his shop and his time on Wednesday afternoons to teach our students in the practical and applied arts class about carpentry. The students had built a shed in the fall and are now working on a second shed. Students really enjoyed working with Doug and were amazed at his knowledge and expertise in the carpentry field.
This Friday, the SLC is sponsoring Grubby Day. The students and staff are invited to where their oldest, comfiest or dirtiest clothes. They are also selling perogies for lunch Friday.
Our junior boys' and senior girls' basketball teams will be starting their games soon. They have been busy practicing for several weeks.
