Marymount Junior Regals, Nickel Classic Volleyball Champions

Congratulations to the Marymount Junior and Senior Regals for their excellent showing in this past weekend’s Nickel Classic Volleyball Tournament. The Senior Regals finished first in their respective pool and were only one of two Sudbury teams to make it to the quarter finals but ended up losing a close match to Sir James Dunn of the Sault marking the end of their tournament run.

The Junior Regals also competed in the Nickel Classic but faired much better than the seniors by finishing first in their pool in round robin play, defeating Sir James Dunn in the quarter finals, and Chippewa from North Bay in semifinal play. In the exciting final match, the Regals shocked the Franco Cite team by defeating them two games straight to claim the Nickel Classic Volleyball championship. The victory marks the second consecutive year that the Marymount Junior Regals have one the largest junior tournament in the province.

St. Anne Food Drive, A Huge Success!

Congratulations to St. Anne Catholic School on their extremely successful food drive before the holidays. The drive was spearheaded by Grade 5 teacher, Mr. Michael Cayen, and saw over 7,000 food items collected. All items were donated to the Knights of Columbus in Hanmer

Mr. David Martin’s class not only met, but surpassed his challenge. As a result, Mr. Martin agreed to shave his head. Grade 7 and 8 students looked on eagerly and actively participated in the head shaving. Hanmer families will benefit from the generous spirit of students, their families and others who have donated time, food and money to the St. Anne Catholic School Food Drive.
