Yesterday’s Junior Girls Basketball quarterfinal was an absolute thriller from the very first whistle! Despite missing a few key players due to illness/injury, our girls came out strong, locking down on defense and showing incredible teamwork.

In the second half, the Nighthawks turned up the heat! With fast breaks, slick passes, and smooth finishes, they lit up the scoreboard and never looked back. It was a full-team effort and a performance to be proud of.

Way to go, Nighthawks! Let’s keep that momentum flying high into the semifinals!"

The Senior Boys Sevens Rugby team wrapped up a great season yesterday at the SCAA finals.  After winning both round robin games the boys lost a back and forth battle with their rivals from Twin Lakes in the Tier 2 final.  Congratulations to all the boys on a successful sevens season.


Our October contest is due on Friday. Since it is Hallowe’en - if you want to work on it before then come on in to Math Help any day at lunch.
