Raise the Roof for St. Martin Church
The JK/SK class of Mrs. Brosseau and the Grade 7/8 class of Mrs. Godin, in conjunction with student council, teamed up to answer their call for service by putting their faith into action through joint initiatives. Collaboratively they fundraised to assist their parish, St. Martin, with a new roof . On June 16th, the two classes presented Father Raul and St. Martin Parish with a big cheque for $1068 representing the total amount the two classes raised with the support of the students, parents and staff of St. Martin School.
Old MacDonald Had A Farm
A needy village will soon be singing this song as they receive a farmyard of animals for their village. The JK/SK class of Mrs. Brosseau and the Grade 7/8 class of Mrs. Godin, in conjunction with student council, teamed up to purchase a small farm consisting of pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and rabbits which will provide an impoverished family with a steady source of income and an ongoing source of nourishment. This gift will not only assist one family, but an entire community will benefit from a fully stocked farmyard.
Let the Games Begin
The students of St. Martin’s Student Council presented the long term residents of Wilkes Terrace with two Wii games, Price is Right and Family Feud ,to add to their collection. A previous St. Martin Gr.7/8 class had purchased the Wii system for the Long Term residents, but student council figured it was time to add to the collection with games so that the residents would have games that challenged the residents intellectually, as well as physically.
