Girls vs Boys Hockey Game Brings Famous Wolves to Bishop Carter

Posted on by admin

Bishop Carter Catholic Secondary School students attended a Girl’s Against the Boy’s Hockey Game at the Centennial arena in Hanmer as a fundraiser for the school’s athletic department recently.

Students from Bishop Carter’s feeder schools as well as a number of Sudbury Wolves players also participated in the event. The highlight of the evening took place when the students from the feeder schools were actually given the opportunity to play in the game.

It was a highly spirited and eventful day for many Bishop Carter Catholic Secondary School students and staff in the area of Valley East. All of the Bishop Carter athletes were appreciated and given honourable mention. The well planned event also gave Grade 8 students the opportunity to see what high school life can be like.

SCDSB Students Winners in my!sudbury Campaign

Posted on by admin

Jenna Kennelly a Grade 4 student from St. Theresa Catholic School and Christina Rorison a Grade 1 student from St. John Catholic School were two of nine students to be presented with 1st and 2nd place prizes in the my!sudbury / oui!sudbury Colouring and Essay Contest. The awards were presented to the students by City of Greater Sudbury Mayor John Rodriguez at a ceremony held at the Valley East Citizen Service Centre/Library.

In November 2006, students from Greater Sudbury elementary and secondary schools were invited to participate in the my!sudbury / oui!sudbury campaign contest and share their pride for the community.

“Through this contest it became evident that the youth of Greater Sudbury have a tremendous sense of pride for their community,” said Greater Sudbury Mayor John Rodriguez. “Many essay entries and pictures depicted our beautiful landscapes, attractions, schools and friendly neighbourhoods. These youth truly feel that ‘my!sudbury’ is their own.”

my!sudbury oui ! sudbury is more then a slogan – it is a campaign that gives all members of the community the pride to act as ambassadors for Greater Sudbury. The campaign assists in building a foundation for community cohesiveness in order to attract business investment, recruit and retain professionals, promote tourism and encourage internal investment.
