Students Walk to Fundraise for a cure for Cystic Fibrosis!

St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School school raised $3500 during their Cystic Fibrosis Walk this week! The students traded in their pencils for running shoes as they walked their way along the track. In turn, their teachers got a taste of something sweet when their students shave their beards and completed a pie throw with all proceeds going toward CF.

Way to go Bears!

Marymount Students Paint Mural to Honour the Sudbury Blue Door Soup Kitchen!

Last week, the Sudbury Blue Door Soup Kitchen celebrated 35 years of “opening doors for people in need”. Marymount Marymount Academy has a long-standing partnership with the Blue Door Soup Kitchen – for the past several years, the Grade 9 students have had the opportunity to volunteer there as a way of putting their Religion curriculum into practice through service to others. This year, for the anniversary, Marymount art students contributed by painting this beautiful mural across their interior wall, making it a focal point for the centre. Congratulations Mykenzie Douglas, Shaleigh Wisniewski & Taylor Lapierre-Grignon for all your hard work!
