P.L.A.Y Challenge
Play Shuswap is again hosting a fun event on BC Family Day weekend. SD83 Healthy Schools Coordinator and president of Play Shuswap, Laura Paiement, said last year the Family Day Play Challenge was such a success we decided to make it an annual event.
Join PLAY Shuswap and Salmon Arm Recreation, Enderby Recreation and Sicamous Recreation for a Family Day Weekend PLAY Challenge! Go to PLAY Shuswap on Facebook and submit a photo taken during Feb 18th-21st 2022 showing your household being active outdoors. See attached poster for fun ways to move outside with your family. There are great prizes to be won!
Thank you to the Province of B.C. for supporting this and other Family Day event.
Indigenous Veterans’ Day
On Monday, Nov. 8 Indigenous Veterans’ Day was commemorated. The First Nations, Inuit and Métis of Canada have a long and proud tradition of military service to our country. Thank you to A.L. Fortune’s Traditional Drum Group for this wonderful performance of Soldier Boy song. Please join and take time to reflect and remember.
The song was introduced by student Lola Jones-Lee.
