It feels like the school year speeds up this time of year!  May is when 2024 grads who have applied for scholarships are going through adjudication for their awards, while others are preparing to embark on their first steps in a career, apprenticeship, job search, gap year or post-secondary educational journey.

Congrats to our LVR girls' soccer team for their gold medal performance in Osoyoos last weekend!  All the best to all of our LVR spring athletics teams - girls' soccer, girls & boys' rugby, golf, and track & field - and a big shout-out of gratitude to the staff sponsors & community coaches who provide these opportunities to our students!

Please note that our Cafeteria will be closed this coming Wednesday, April 24 as LVR Culinary students will be at Selkirk College in their Culinary Arts Program.

Spring has finally sprung! There is no surer sign that the seasons have changed than the beginning of eight weeks of training for our annual Reconciliation Run Walk Wheel taking place in all SD8 schools in June. The run offers weekly teachings on this year’s theme of Health, Wellness, and Reconciliation, along with training tips and information for all the staff, students and families who participate.

Have a great Spring Break & Easter Weekend, everyone!  See you back on Tuesday, April 2nd for the last 13 weeks of the year.  Please be prepared for a focused finish after the break as the last term tends to fly by very quickly!

This week's pic comes from the return of the 24-Hour Writing Contest, hosted at LVR last Friday/Saturday from 11:30am-11:30am, and included guest authors, Gillian Wylie & Roz Nay.  Thanks to Ms. Kroker & Ms. Lord for organizing and hosting this event, along with Ms. Browning who is helping with selecting the winner from the 16 entries.  Students involved in this event were highly engaged and were incredibly helpful with each other in idea-generation and editing each other's work.  Watch for this event again next year!
