The Primary Lunchtime Sports program is in full gear with approximately 180 students in Grade 1, 2 and 3 signing up. The students have been divided into 10 teams. Each team has been given a team name such as "Elephants", "Stingrays" and "Jaguars". The classroom teachers each have a schedule. Each team will play eight different times between now and the end of April. Lunchtime Sports takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:00p.m.
The students take part in various games such as Island Dodgeball, Dr. Dodgeball etc. Mr. Macdonald, Mr. Szilagyi and Mr. Profiti are the supervising teachers. If you have any questions about this program please speak to any one of us.

Ice Hockey
The 2012 Ice Hockey season got off to a great start at the UCC Under 12 Tournament. The team competed against some very strong teams and managed to play their way into the Silver Cup Final.
The regular season got off to a bit of a slow start with two losses in the first two games. The team was able to turn things around and finish the regular season off with three straight wins thus securing a spot in the play-offs. The quarter final opponent was Northlea PS a team that lost only once during their regular season. A couple of "lucky" goals by Northlea put the team from Brown in a tough position to get out of but the team showed great resilience and dominated the rest of the game. Unfortunately we couldn't get one more goal past their goalie and the team lost by a score of 3 - 2.
A big thank you to all the parents whose support was always present at each and every game. Congratulations to the team on a great season and we wish the graduating Grade 6 students the best of luck and say thank you for your outstanding years of play on the team.
Mr. Ellis, Jonah Weslak and Mr. Profiti
