Our Lady of Lourdes CES

Mrs McFadyen's Grade seven class made and sampled green smoothies today, as part of their Smart Snacking assignment. Shockingly enough, every student asked for seconds 😋 (Recipe: 1c of spinach, pineapple chunks, mango chunks and water, 1 ripe banana).

On Friday, May 31st , Our Lady of Lourdes participated in a DAY of PRAYER and FAITH based activities. We began our day with a short opening liturgy in the gym, participated in many faith based activities throughout the day, and ended together with a closing slideshow.
