Saying Thank You with a Turtle

June 17, 2019

TurtlesNEWS.jpgOn May 10, Voyageur School celebrated the contributions of their school volunteers with the student-led theme — sea turtles. Under the direction of Mrs. Swart, students prepared musical entertainment for all guests. Students performed Israel Kamakawiwo’ole’s arrangement of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” “How Far I’ll Go” from the Moana soundtrack, and several Hawaiian songs and dances. The gym also featured eye-catching student art connected to sea turtles. To honour the invaluable contributions of Voyageur’s volunteers, and in line with classroom focus on sustainability and keeping our oceans clean, two Loggerhead Sea Turtle nests were adopted. At the end of the celebration, each volunteer received a certificate indicating where their sea turtle nest is located and a turtle cookie as a small token of appreciation. 

Thank you to all volunteers in SJASD for your contributions throughout the 2018-2019 school year. Our success belongs to you, our families, staff and students!
