Important Dates 

Tuesday June 3 Graduation – All staff will be participating – No classes for students 

Bike-a-Thon 

On May 12, our school hosted a 12-hour Bike-a-Thon in the gym, bringing together over 90 participants across 20 teams. From early morning to evening, students and staff kept the wheels turning in support of a meaningful cause. Thanks to the dedication of our riders and the generosity of our community, we successfully raised $12,178 for The Summit: Marian & Jim Sinneave Centre for Youth Resilience. 

A huge thank you to everyone who participated, donated, or helped organize the event. Your support made this initiative a success and showed the impact we can make when we work together. 

Knights’ Spring Showcase 

On Thursday, May 29 from 5:30 –7:30 pm. Come explore the incredible work our students have accomplished this semester! Our Construction, Art, and Photography programs will be showcasing their outstanding projects and artwork. Don’t miss the chance to walk through and witness the impressive skills and creativity of our Knights! 

The evening will also feature: 
  - Performances from our talented Music program 
  - Delicious treats prepared by our Culinary program 
  - Entertaining short skits presented by our French and Drama programs 

Drama has been working on 10-minute-musicals where they created their own storyline and scripts being performed in the theatre: 

Murder at Michigan Hospital - When an appendix removal goes wrong, Ezra must discover who has their organs and who stole them. In this comedic medical drama, two surgeons will discover what it truly means to be empty. 

Wrong Soul - A group of friends decide to spend an evening together at the mall when something peculiar happens. Some of them have changed and they realize something is off; not everything is as it appears.  

Could I be a Wizard? - A young boy goes behind his mother’s back to chase his dream of learning magic, but his teacher may not be all that he seems. Will he discover the secrets of spell craft, or will his ambition be cut short?

Spring Showcase Treats! Get ready to indulge! Our amazing culinary students are dishing up sweet and savory goodness with an Ice Cream Sundae Bar and a Poutine Station piled high with cheesy, gravy goodness. Every bite is made (and served!) by our talented students. Come hungry and support their tasty hard work! 

It’s a night to celebrate the diverse talents within our school—we hope to see you there!
