Weekly update March 3rd-7th

Good Afternoon Upper Pine Families,

Basketball

Yesterday, the Grade 6 mixed team participated in the District A Boys’ Basketball Tournament, which was organized using a two-tier system. The organizers divided all the teams into two groups: Tier One and Tier Two. 

The final match against Taylor was very competitive, showcasing our team’s excellent teamwork, persistence, and determination.

I am delighted to announce that our team is the champion of the Tier 2 Boys’ Basketball Tournament.

Officials

Michael Akulenko, Tristan Illenseer, Aidan Bueckert, Ryleigh Scott, Edison Smith, Bo Denzler, Molly Sutherland, Blayke Hiebert, and Danielle Illenseer from Mr. Neufeld’s class volunteered for scorekeeping and reffing during the Boys’ Basketball tournament. They conducted themselves like professionals, calmly and accurately maintaining the game scores and times.

 

I would like to thank these students for embracing this challenge and for their willingness to contribute their time and effort to support the elementary basketball league.

I would also like to express my heartfelt thanks to Mrs. Smith for her generous commitment of time and effort in coaching the team and the officials!

Mrs. Fillion is another person who works behind the scenes and designs and distributes the permission forms. Thank you, Mrs. Fillion, for all your help and support!
