St. Charles College students are gearing up for their 2nd annual Cards Crush Cancer in support of the Northern Cancer Foundation. The event will be held on May 29th from 10am-2pm at St. Charles College. An outdoor concert, food trucks, bubble soccer, yoga and Zumba are some of the activities taking place that day. As a pre-cursor to the event, Tuesday morning, students paid $1 for a piece of duct tape to tape their Vice Principals Karl Dregger and Jason Michelutti to the wall. All funds raised will go towards the St. Charles College Cards Crush Cancer fundraiser.

Sudbury Catholic Staff Celebrate Board Wide Wellness Day!
Wellness is the quality or state of being healthy in mind, body and spirit – especially as the result of deliberate effort. It is seen as an approach to healthcare that emphasizes preventing illness and prolonging life, as opposed to emphasizing treating diseases.
Sudbury Catholic Schools staff put their wellness first by participating in a Board Wide Wellness Day! Staff were encouraged to complete a wellness activity throughout their work day that would help enhance their mind, body and spirit. From walking to yoga, indulging in a healthy lunch or trying meditation, the possibilities seemed endless!
Great job by all participants!

Staff and Students ring in the Chinese New Year at St. Charles College
The Chinese New Year was fully embraced at St. Charles College on February 5th, 2019, where staff and students came together as a school community dressed in red to celebrate. The students received beautifully red wrapped mandarin oranges from the breakfast club, which symbolizes good luck and friendship in the Chinese culture.
A traditional lunch, which consisted of dumplings, pork rice, spring rolls and almond cookies was served to students in the English Café, a club for all international students. New Year festivities will continue during the month of February at lunch for students to participate and learn about various traditions of the Chinese culture. Workshops on calligraphy, dragon art and a friendly chopstick competition will be held in the learning commons. These workshops will be led by our international students and partners in the community like the YMCA and Laurentian University’s international student program.
