We
have reached the final stretch of the school year! I
can’t believe it is June and we are just weeks away from summer holidays. Even though, June can be a very busy month
things are quickly wrapping up here in the gym.
Our
grades K-2 students will be finishing off the year by working on their overhand
throwing unit and then focusing on their kicking and striking skills. Some fun
activities will be planned for those skills.
The
grades 4-8 students are getting ready for their big track and field meet this
month. Grades 7 & 8 will be going on
Friday, June 5th and grades 4-6 will have their big day on Monday,
June 8th . Both events will
be held at the University of Manitoba Bison Stadium come rain or shine! After track is finished we will be playing
some low organized games.
On
June 29th at 9:15, we will be having our STORM awards ceremony
honouring those students who competed for the school teams along with
presenting our female and male athletes of the year. Those parents who students competed for the
school team are more than welcome to attend this event.
Once
again, I would like to thank all of our students, parents, volunteer coaches
and staff who helped to make our St. Gerard Storm season a tremendous
success. To our students for all of
their hard work and dedication throughout the year. To our coaches for their
dedication and passion for coaching. To the parents who drove their children to
games and tournaments. To our scorekeepers for all of their fantastic work
keeping score at home games and to the St. Gerard staff for their supervision
for all of the practices and games this year.
Without all of
you, none of this would be possible!
To
the St. Gerard community, have a wonderful, safe and relaxing summer!
God
bless
Mr.
Kolowca
