This week's guest blogger is SD62's Public Relations Coordinator, Lindsay Vogan.
What a fantastic evening yesterday at the Family Fall Gathering at
Saseenos Elementary! Thank you to all the families and children for attending and celebrating student success in SD62.
Aside from the delicious harvest stew dinner, the Tzinquaw Dancers stole the show with their acrobatic-like dancing, powerful signing and spectacular costumes.
Big thanks to the
T'Sou-ke Nation for hosting and involving everyone in a really fun workshop. And the prizes....51 people took home incredible gifts- it was like a Holiday party! The grads also raised a lot of money thanks to all the people who donated in the silent auction. It wasn't difficult to want to bid more than $100 on the artwork that was up for grabs.
The true spirit of the community shone through when students and families pledged to help make the world a better place by reducing and conserving electricity in their communities.
