House League at Iroquois


Written by: K. J. L-Z.


 House League is active for grade 1-6 students. Students at Iroquois play with children that are not in your class. Mr. Kilbride divides the students into colour groups. For example blue, maroon, red, purple, black, and orange. You will hear your colour on the announcements when it is your turn to play against another team. Did you know you can vote for the House League game? You can play volleyball, dodgeball, ball hockey, and more. Primary students (grades 1-3) play first at 11:00 am. Junior students (grades 4-6)  play second at 11:30am .Join  house league because it is fun, you can exercise, meet new friends, and you can avoid the winter!





Ms. R’s Challenges


Written by: K. J. L-Z.


This school year, JK-grade 6 students may participate in “Ms .R’s Challenges”! It takes place at the school every month. For example, in November Ms. R gave us a challenge that we had to build words using the letters in “remembrance” and we also played a math game where she told us to use as many different shapes as you can to make a picture. When you complete the activity, your teacher will give it to Ms. R and she will put your teacher’s name into a draw. The winner of the draw will get a prize for their class. For example, a popcorn party, stickers, and board games. The draw is done at the character trait assembly. Ms. R’s reason for creating these challenges is truly fascinating. Ms. R said she wanted to do something fun that helped students learn new skills. We look forward to her announcing the next challenge in the new year!
