On Friday our Student Government gathered for their first meeting! We sent our two class representatives to take part. Can't wait to hear the ideas of the students and see what they have planned for Holy Redeemer!

| Our class representatives with Coach Caroline and Mr. Dumont |
Our Grade 1 through 4 students were involved in Junior University! Essentially, in university students CHOOSE their courses, so we are giving our students an opportunity to choose their course each Friday!
We signed up for the course that interested us most. Sign up will always happen Wednesday mornings.

Then, off to our sessions!
Marble Track (Mr. Dumont)
Students built a marble race track using cardboard and other materials.
Augmented Reality Art (Mrs. Beliveau)
Students coloured and, using a free app called Quiver, made their drawings come alive! Check out this 1 minute clip describing the activity https://youtu.be/EGMjsYHD7Ak
We were dazzled! We made volcanoes erupt, cars drive, penguins skate, and birds eat worms!
