Tournaments
We have moved into organizing and running tournaments in Leadership. We started with a Forest Gump Ladder Ping Pong Tourney a few weeks ago and just finished learning how to set up a run a Badminton Double-Elimination Tournament. Congratulations to all our tournament winners who earn the privilege to pose for a photo with the prestigious Leadership trophy.

Leadership Gives to the Good Shepherd Food Bank
This morning we brought our donated food down to the Animal Sciences scale. Our donations totaled 274lbs which made us the top Grade 12 class as well as the top class in the school! The food accumulated was truly a team effort. Special thanks to Julia who put us over the top this morning with her last minute soup donations. Breakfast Friday !
Top Class for the Food Drive based on weight |

Finally......... Football Buy In Success!
Concession Sellers Extraordinaire!
After a two week delay from the cancellation of the first buy in (due to circumstances beyond our control), the Jr. Football Buy in went off without a hitch. Banting students enjoyed getting their faces painted and filling up on popcorn, pop, chocolate, candy, chips and freezies at the concession. My highlight was the Leadership students who came up with the idea of walking the track to sell freezies and junk!We ended up selling an additional 120 tickets and will be donating the money to the local Good Shepherd Food Bank as part of our schools food drive. Next time mascot Mo will make an appearance.

YMCA Cedar Glen Outdoor Centre
Amazing day at Cedar Glen
When we arrived at Cedar Glen we were greeted by our leaders Jordie, Will and Alyssa and shown where to store our bags. Then, Jordie and Will led us through a number of icebreakers and team building initiatives on the main field. We started with switching spots with those we had something in common with and then quickly moved to opponent slapping and finger jousting. We learned who in the group can do the splits and unscrammbled 11 letters to create justoneword. Some tasks were more frustrating then others. We were really quick at throwing the dinosaurs in a sequence and sending the marble down the bobsled into the bucket. Through patience and teammwork we moved the pyramid of five blocks from one end to the other with the morning shift, day shift and evening shifts and placed the zoom cards in order.John & Jordie "slapping" each other off balance |

Terry Fox Run 2013
Thursday September 26, 2013 - Period 2- Walk/ Run
400+ Participants and $10 107 raised for the Terry Fox Foundation
Planning and preparation for the Terry Fox Run began the second week of school. Initial event preparation started with a brainstorming session and then a number of smaller committees were formed and in charge of making decisions and executing tasks. Posters and a bulletin board needed to be hung, classroom packages needed to be created and stuffed for students to visit students and teachers, activities needed to be planned, signs needed to be made, the field needed lining and buy in tickets and selling needed to be planned. The Leadership class did this with enthusiasm and creativity. Flyers were dropped off at houses in the Banting community along the route and Officer Gilbert came on board to patrol the route.
After a quick and efficient set up during period 1, period 2 started with face paint, tattoos, "I'm Running for" stickers and upbeat music to get walkers and runners spirited and connected.
When runners and walkers returned from the 2.5km loop they stopped for a quick drink of water and then headed out to the field for a variety of different activities.
