Annual Ken Szopa Healthy Living Triathlon

Each year our grade 8 Sport Leadership class organizes the Ken Szopa Healthy Living Triathlon early in June.  Athletes from our Grade 7 and 8 Sport Performance Option and Sport for Life program participate in the triathlon and all of our students are invited and encouraged to be outside and cheer on the athletes as they reach the finish line.  Student Council was able to also provide a hot dog lunch for all of our students last year in conjunction with the triathlon to create a fantastic community spirit event for our whole school.
