Arcola Education Week

                Arcola School had a week full of fun activities as the students and staff celebrated Saskatchewan’s Education Week together from Oct. 15-21, which the government says is “a time to celebrate student success and recognize our dedicated education professionals across this great province.”

                The theme this year put forth by the government was “Building our Future by Learning Together.”

                During the week the Lions group came in to speak to the students about their guide dog programs early last week, while the next day saw school-wide Reading Buddies from Kindergarten to grade 12 participating.

                Wednesday, Oct. 18, was Pay-It-Forward Day where students, staff, parents, and community members were encouraged to do small good-deeds with hopes that the recipient of that good-deed would pay-it-forward. Teacher, Judy Naylen, said the entire week went over well, but that this particular exercise was very well received and spread throughout the day.

                The week ended with a free pancake breakfast for the students to enjoy as well as an RCMP Canine Presentation, which was very well received by the youth. Many raised their hands up when asked if anyone wanted to be a police officer when they grew up.
