Pirates of the Caribbean!

Currently: enjoying coffee. I love living in the land of excellent coffee. 

Being in my third year, there begins to be a pattern to the school year- events, busy times, exam leave, etc. One of the most exciting and dynamic times is the high school banquet! In the last few years, we have taken the kids to Wonderland with Alice, Mad Hatter and the crew, and visited a thriving jazz club in 1920s New York.

This year, after many weeks of hard work, the students had a night on the Black Pearl ship and a visit to Treasure Island.



 We turned our Gowans Center building into a ship and the basketball court beside it into an island. The students had dinner on the ship and had games, dancing, and a bonfire on the island.

 All the staff are so wonderful every year to go with our crazy ideas and participate with such enthusiasm!








Always a fun time with the staff and students!
